WAYZATA 
Delicious Honey-Sweet 
Bears 60 Days After Planting 
3 Full Crops In 18 Months 
WESTHAUSER’S WAYZATAS 
ARE THE BEST IN THE COUN¬ 
TRY says Mr. Duncan of Missouri: 
June 4th, 1938 
Dear Mr. Westhauser: 
I want to thank you for the fine 
plants you sent me, I never saw such 
thrifty plants. My Wayzata clumps 
will be the size of a half-bushel 
basket by midsummer. You deserve 
lots of credit for pioneering such a 
supreme variety. Even the last 1000 
lot of clumps, which I ordered in 
November, came through fine. The 
Wayzata is my favorite. Your ef- 
forts and the Michigan climate is 
the only place in the country to pro¬ 
duce such quality. Have had plants 
from eastern states, but their stuff 
is over-worked and cannot compare 
with your northern quality. 
OUTYIELDS ALL OTHER EVERBEARERS 2 TO 1 
At last we have found an everbearer, WAYZATA, WITH ALL THE GOOD 
POINTS DESIRED. A large, uniform, firm berry, red to the core, even color 
all over, no green tips, drought resistant, honey-sweet flavor, and persistently 
outyields all other everbearers at least two to one. 
Today, October 5th, we are picking Wayzata Strawberries. In spite of the pro¬ 
longed dry spell in September we have a nice large lot of big, firm, red berries 
for shipment to the Chicago market where we have been receiving extra fancy 
prices over all other everbearers. 
THE HONEY-SWEET BERRY WITHOUT A FAULT 
Without contradiction the best flavored Everbearer of today. Customers who 
have tried Wayzata in a small way have come back with larger orders every year, 
in spite of being higher in price than other Everbearers. They lose no time in 
repaying your investment, bear the first crop 60 days after being planted until 
November; again a fine crop the next spring and the third crop from July until 
snow flies. 
WITHSTANDS 30 BELOW ZERO WEATHER 
Wayzata is very hardy, stands 30 below zero weather, is adapted to a wide 
range of soils, from clay to sandy soil. The plants are large and extra heavy 
rooted. The foliage is dark green, stands 8 to 10 inches high, leaves are thick, 
leather-like, free from leaf spots and other plant diseases. The crowns often mul¬ 
tiply ten-fold or more, which accounts for their heavy fruiting quality. However, 
since they are busy directing their energy to fruiting they do not make many 
runner plants as other everbearers do, which, together with the great demand, 
keeps the price of plants rather high. That is the reason why plants are scarce 
and will be for some time to come. The Wayzata has been a sell-out with us 
every year and we are obliged to return many orders. To be on the safe side, 
order early and have your plants reserved. 
Wayzata Clump or Combination Plants 
Grow Enormous Size—Often 12 to 15 Inches Across. Fifty Plants Will Supply the 
Average Family With Berries During Summer and Fall. 
A Single Clump 
or Combination 
The Wayzata makes runner plants 
in limited quantities, but joins 
a number of new plants with new 
roots to the mother plant. This 
combination of plants appears as one 
large plant with a number of 
crowns, which is the reason the 
Wayzata outbears all other ever¬ 
bearing Strawberries. Nature pro¬ 
vides each crown with a number 
of fruit stems and blooms which 
are formed before winter, re¬ 
maining dormant until plants 
are transplanted in spring, 
which come to bloom 
shortly after. 
We have counted 25 fruit stems on a single clump 
plant, the plant you see at the left has six crowns and 
could be divided into that many plants for individual 
planting. Clump plants will grow easily with such a 
mammoth ROOT system to start with. Pick the first 
blooms off the plants which will appear right after 
planting, a new set of blossoms will follow and in 
three weeks later the first berries will ripen. We 
recommend these large plants for hill system culture, 
especially for small, rich garden plots, planting them 
20 x20 inches apart. We have sold some orders in 
large lots and our customers had excellent results, 
ordering them in 1000 lots. 
Fertilizer 
The Wayzata Clumps possessing such a large root 
system, and the fruiting possibilities governed only 
by the humus and minerals in the soil, we recom¬ 
mend PEAT MOSS (unless your soil is rich in 
humus), about 10 quarts to each 50 Wayzata clumps, 
which is rich in humus, nitrogen 
and other minerals. Peat Moss ab¬ 
sorbs water and holds moisture ten 
times its own weight. Mix about 
25 per cent with the soil in the 
openings that you plant the Way¬ 
zata clumps in. See page 15 on 
Peat Moss. 
The size of the 
berries in the above 
photo is reduced in 
order to save space.
