Late Strawberries 
A mnnHa This is the larg “ 
Amanud ‘ est berry that 
we have. In fruiting season 
you can easily find berries 
twenty-one of which will fill 
a quart basket full. The 
plants are vigorous, healthy, 
large, and upright in 
growth. Blossoms are per¬ 
fect. The fruit is very large 
in size, dark red in color, 
and of good quality. It is 
of the most productive varie¬ 
ties we have and growers wish¬ 
ing an extra-large, good-quality 
berry should plant some 
Amanda. Price, $6 per i ,000. 
AROMA. 
In many of the great Strawberry¬ 
growing sections Aroma is the lead¬ 
ing late variety. We often receive letters from cus¬ 
tomers saying: “New varieties may be good, but 
Aroma is good enough for me.” Mr. Alonzo Stewart, 
of Illinois, says: “I have never been deceived in your 
plants. I can truthfully say that the Aroma is the 
best berry I have ever grown. I always recommend 
your plants to my friends.” Mr. Snyder, of Indiana, 
growing Aroma and Fendall together, produced a 
crop of 15,000 quarts of fancy berries per acre. 
Aroma has a very long picking season. The blossoms 
are perfect and very rich in pollen, making it a good, 
fancy berry either to plant alone or with Hustler, 
Sample, Haverland, Kellogg’s Prize, or other fancy 
pistillate varieties. The berries are rich in color, large 
in size, and deliciously aromatic in flavor. 
in size, and deliciously 
They have handsome 
caps, 
which 
make the fruit show up especially good in the package. 
The berries are firm in texture and solid enough 
to make an excellent shipping berry. We believe 
you would like this variety. Price, $5 per 1,000.

A Ej variety was secured from the in¬ 
troducer, so we have them absolutely true to name. 
We have never fruited it ourselves, but the intro¬ 
ducer thinks very highly of the Big Late. He says: 
“This variety has been thoroughly tested for three 
years and each year it has outyielded all of the old 
standard late varieties. When it comes to quality 
and flavor, the berries are superior to any other va¬ 
riety with which we are acquainted. The originator 
says that the berries are so firm that they carry to 
remotely distant points and arrive in excellent con¬ 
dition. Kellogg’s Big Late is a strong, vigorous-grow¬ 
ing pistillate, with large, healthy leaves, and the 
roots very deeply set. Its berries are produced in 
clusters on long fruiting stalks. The 
color of the berries is a deep 
scarlet, seeds are bright yel¬ 
low, the calyx bright green, 
and the fruit-stems are 
large. ” With us, the va¬ 
riety has made a very 
vigorous growth and, 
as long as pur stock 
lasts, we shall be glad 
to supply the plants. 
Order early and we will 
reserve what you want. 
Price, $12 per 1,000. 
Brandywine. 
A good late variety for 
tropical and semi-trop¬ 
ical sections. We espe¬ 
cially recommend this 
for Bermuda, Cuba, the 
Pacific coast states, and 
the Gulf states. At the 
same time it is a valu¬ 
able variety in the 
North where it origi¬ 
nated. The plant is 
healthy and vigorous 
and produces a fine 
crop of large, handsome 
fruit. We have a fine 
stock of Brandywine 
plants this season and 
hope to be able to fill all 
orders. $5 per 1,000.
