POT-GROWN STRAWBERRIES. 
Pot=Qrown Strawberry plants are now in almost universal demand for Summer 
and Autumn planting, which may be attributed to the fact that they can be planted 
with safety at a time that is most convenient for nearly all planters. 
Late spring planting of layer plants gives the most unsatisfactory results, and 
very few growers are ready to plant in Spring at the proper time. 
Pot-grown plants entirely overcome this difficulty, as they can be planted at any 
time from July to October with success. 
Pot-grown plants will furnish a good crop of 
berries the following season, and they will be of the 
largest and finest. 
Our plants are groiyn with a view to giving satis¬ 
faction to our customers, and are not sent out until 
well rooted and established in the pots. 
Packing is done in the most careful manner, plants 
always reaching customers in good condition. 
Potted plants will be ready for shipment July 20th. 
Order early. 
When planting in a dry time, soak the ball in 
water before planting, and don’t forget to mulch in 
winter.
