POT-GROWN STRAWBERRY PLANTS 
The Strawberry will grow in any good garden soil where the ground has been thoroughly prepared. For 
family use we recommend planting them in double rows, 1 foot apart each way and 3 feet between the double 
rows. Our pot-grown Strawberry plants are well-rooted, healthy plants, ready for shipment in August, and by 
setting them any time during August and September, a fine crop of fruit may be had the next season. The follow¬ 
ing sorts have proved the most satisfactory for growing in this locality.

with fruit far superior to the older sorts.
