and has a long season. This is only one of its valuable traits. 
The Fruit resembles the “ Mary ” in shape, but larger and heavier. 
It is remarkably uniform in shape for such a large berry. 
The quality is unsurpassed, juicy, luscious, solid to the center, the 
flavor being what is generally known as “ mild.” 
The Color is dark crimson, very glossy and attractive, remarkably 
even all over the berry, never showing a white tip. 
The growth is excellent, large, deep green, handsome foliage. The 
fruit is borne on strong stalks and in great profusion, as may be seen 
in the cut, which is a photograph of a plant in the field.
