ROBERTS’ READY TO GROW STRAWBERRY PLANTS 
DORSETT. Prolific, Handsome, Fine Flavor 
Early, Perfect Flowering 
Dorsett was also introduced by the United States Department 
of Agriculture. It has built up a reputation for producing e- 
normous crops of large berries. The berries are in very much 
demand everywhere, for shipping, canning and dessert purposes. 
The color is a beautiful medium red, very attractive and 
tempting. The texture is very firm and stands shipping to dis¬ 
tant markets very well. It ripens uniformly. Its shape is conical 
with sometimes a flattened point. 
The flavor is the kind that everyone likes in strawberries. 
They are delicious with, or without sugar. 
Dorsett produces an enormous crop of large berries. We do 
not hesitate to say that we believe that it will produce the largest 
crop of any early variety on the market. 
Dorsett has a habit of fitting in most anywhere. For table 
use, its flavor prevails. Its attractiveness and color sells it at 
roadside markets. Its canning and shipping qualities make it a 
profitable commercial berry. 
Dorsett is also a free plant maker, and you must be very care¬ 
ful and not allow it to become too thick in the beds. The foliage 
is very healthy, and stands up extremely well during fruiting sea¬ 
son, protecting the fruit from sun scald. 
For whatever purpose you grow strawberries we think Dorsett 
can be relied upon to serve that purpose.
