Over 5000 Quarts On

of Heavy Spring Frosts 
History of Grand Champion 
1 /"il C 1 *1 
Grand Champion was found as a single 
seedling growing on a decaying stump. 
This seedling produced 30 plants. The 
next spring there were 300 plants dug for 
replanting, and harvested 105 quarts of 
selected berries on a space 66 square feet. 
Over 5000 Quarts On 
One-Half Acre 
Two years later, in spite of heavy frosts while 
they were in bloom and almost continuous rain 
during harvest they yielded over 5000 quarts of 
berries from one'half acre. 
No Crop Failures On Account 
of Spring Frosts 
The plants are large, and the foliage is heavy which pro 
tects the blooms in early spring from freezing. This is not 
the only protection. It would not be saying too much if we 
called the Grand Champion the spring Everbearer, for we 
have picked strawberries for 40 days on account of its con' 
tinual blooming. Complete crop failure is almost impossible. 
The Berries 
For canning and preserving they are in a class by them' 
selves as they are coreless and retain their shape and flavor 
in the can. Their rich red color, the extra large size, beautiful 
appearance and high quality attracts the fancy fruit buyer. 
We have received a premium on our Grand Champion ever 
since we have grown them.

“I want to write you about my Strawberry plants which 
I purchased from you last year. 1 was pleased with the 
Grand Champion—had a wonderful crop of excellent quality. 
I set several varieties which were good, but nothing com¬ 
pared to Grand Champion.” 
Yours truly,

Gentlemen: Last spring I bought 2000 Grand Champion 
Strawberry plants from you and I want to tell you what 
fine success I had with these plants. 
Grand Champion beats them all for size, appearance, and 
fine quality. I grow only the better kind of Strawberries. 
My customers paid me a premium on Grand Champion and 
I always was sold out of them first. Not only are they 
larger than any other variety, but there were twice as many 
of them and picking was a pleasure and most profitable.
