PREMIER 
This is the father of so many excellent strawberries that its 
qualifications as the supreme berry almost speak for themselves. 
This berry has been used more times to propagate other varieties 
than any other single berry, so the Premier must have a number 
of admirable qualities. It is a very successful berry in the North 
and East, ripens early and has a long fruiting season. Berries 
are large and of uniform size. 
AROMA 
Late—Safe from Frost 
No late berry that we have ever grown comes as near being a perfect 
variety of strawberry as does the Aroma. This old standard berry is adapted 
to such a wide range of soils and conditions that it remains the favorite 
late berry in spite of all the newer introductions. 
Perfect blossoms, vigorous, highly productive—the Aroma is by far the 
best money-making late variety produced in the South. It is very firm, 
bright red through and through, and of enormous size. In our fields no other 
late berry has ever matched the Aroma in size, yield, or hardiness. For that 
reason we have discontinued many late varieties after giving them trial. 
The Aroma is a free plant maker for a late variety. It is very hardy, 
blooming late. It stands drought conditions better than any other late 
variety. As a shipping berry it is unexcelled. It is highly tart and 
continues to bear long after mid-season varieties have gone.

MASTODON—Everbearing 
Ripe Strawberries in 90 Days With Waller's 
Quality Mastodon Plants 
WITHIN the past few years the Mastodon has qualified itself 
as the best Everbearing strawberry yet introduced. It holds 
the same high position among the Everbearers that Premier 
and Blakemore hold among the early varieties. A heavy yielder 
—both spring and fall—of good quality berries which are mod¬ 
erately firm, large and luscious in shape and taste, a good plant 
maker for an Everbearing variety, disease and drouth resistant. 
Little wonder the Mastodon is called the Supreme Everbearer! 
The Mastodon has easily outdistanced the old Champion and 
Progressive everbearing strawberries, containing all the worth¬ 
while qualities of these two varieties and many more which 
they lay no claim to. 
Although the Mastodon does not make plants as freely as 
some of the early berries, it is a very free plant maker for an 
Everbearer. It blossoms late, thus avoiding the danger of frost. 
It ripens its spring crop midseason. 
Mastodon plants should be set in the mid-South in February 
or March, and we recommend keeping the blossoms from the 
plants until the middle of July, as this saps their vitality 
during the growing season. The second season the plants should 
be allowed to fruit freely. 
After growing this plant for several years, we are ready 
to recommend it fully to our customers. However, it is our 
experience that the Mastodon, like any other Everbearing va¬ 
riety, will do best when planted in the Hill System. Mor§, 
larger, and better berries can be picked from the Mastodon if 
the runners of the plants are kept cut off for the first season. 
Big, strong, individual plants bear more and better fruit than 
lots of weak plants. If this system is followed, plants should 
be set about 12 or 15 inches apart in rows 2 y 2 feet apart. How¬ 
ever, if you prefer the Matted Row method, set the plants 18 
inches apart in rows 3 feet apart. 
Waller Bros.* Mastodon plants are guaranteed true-to-name. 
Due to our long growing season we are able to produce stronger 
and better plants of this variety than many plant growers 
farther north, and because of this fact we are able to quote 
a lower price on Quality plants. 
GEM—Everbearing 
Gem plants are usually medium to small, but make a very 
vigorous growth. Care should be taken to set Gem plants 
early and under good conditions. Once started they grow vig¬ 
orously and make lots of plants. Thin severely for best results. 
Our records for two years show Gem about as productive as 
Mastodon in 1936 and considerably more productive in 1937. 
The berries average in size, are light in color, very showy, at¬ 
tractive and firm enough to ship. Quality is somewhat tart but 
fine when sweetened. They sell for top prices. 
IMPROVED KLONDIKE 
THE BEST BERRy FOR MID-SOUTH 
SEVERAL other varieties of strawberries may excel the 
time-proved Improved Klondike in one particular feature, but 
for a good, all-round strawberry which combines a multitude 
of admirable features, this variety knows no superiors. It is 
by long odds the most extensively planted strawberry in the 
mid-South and, after thirty years of testing, there must be 
good reasons why berry growers stick to this old favorite. 
The Improved Klondike is a free plant maker and almost 
a sure cropper. The new improved variety is not easily suscep¬ 
tible to the diseases common to strawberries. It is adapted to 
a wide range of soils and conditions. 
The Klondike fruit is a bright, glossy red in color. It holds 
this bright color until long after it is marketed. It yields a 
heavy crop of fancy fruit which usually brings a 20 per cent 
premium on the market. In dessert quality, shipping quality, 
and strong plants we know of no variety which surpasses the 
Improved Klondike. 
If you want vigorous, true-to-name Improved Klondike plants 
—let WALLER BROS, be your headquarters. We are prepared 
to fill your order, be it large or small, and we guarantee that 
you cannot buy better Klondike plants than those you will 
get from us. 
At the time this price list goes to press we are 
digging on an order of Four Million (4,000,000) Klon¬ 
dike plants for one point in Southern Texas. This is 
proof that this variety is yet in great demand in many 
Southern States. These plants are being dug at the 
rate of 300,000 plants daily. WALLER BROTHERS 
are able to take care of any size order and give you 
SERVICE, QUALITY and SATISFACTION. 
MISSIONARY 
For Florida, Texas, and the Gulf Coast— 
An Unbeatable Shipping Berry 
THE MISSIONARY, even after a quarter century of exten¬ 
sive planting, and so outstanding is its yield and plant vigor 
that the newer introductions of the U. S. Department of Agri¬ 
culture have not enhanced this popularity. We ship millions 
of Missionary plants to Florida annually. 
This old variety is an excellent plant maker, doing well on 
soil too sandy for other varieties. It is free from rust, a vig¬ 
orous grower, and produces an average yield of high quality 
berries. However, we do not recommend its being planted 
north of Missouri as there are several other varieties more 
nearly adapted to the colder climate. 
Our plants are from the original stock of Missionary—healthy, 
heavy producers, true-to-name. We take great pride in the 
quality of our Missionary and Klondike plants, for we believe 
that we grow and sell more plants of these varieties than any 
other plant dealer in the United States.
