Our strain of Chesapeake will make plants. Try some of these. 
AROMA 
Vetof, JlcUe 'Ua'ueiieA, 
For many years Aroma has been the leading 
late shipping berry in Arkansas, Missouri, Ten¬ 
nessee, Kentucky and other southern and central 
states. Here are some of the reasons it has 
been able to hold this leadership. The plants, 
though small, are very vigorous and healthy 
and make plenty of runners for a good fruiting 
row. They are very' productive in regions 
adapted to Aroma. The berries are beauties. 
They have a shiny bright red color which dark¬ 
ens very little on holding or shipping. And 
they have the finest, greenest caps of any variety 
to enhance their natural beauty. On top of 
that, they are.firm enough to ship long distances 
and go into market in almost perfect condition. 
Aroma has never been a leader in the East, 
but in the states mentioned as well as Southern 
Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, it has been a money 
maker. Special attention to our stock of Aroma, 
as well as to other varieties which normally 
make very small plants, has enabled us to pro¬ 
duce some plants of which we are proud. You 
will like them. Price list, page 35. 
A new variety from Connecti¬ 
cut (111). Dr. D. F. Jones, the 
originator says, “Hebron is 
the latest variety coming into 
maximum productiveness at the time when all 
other varieties are nearly through”. “The fruit 
is unusually light and bright in color in strik¬ 
ing contrast to the dark green caps. Hebron 
has been called by many the prettiest straw¬ 
berry they have grown”. The flesh of the ber¬ 
ries is soft and rather poor in quality. The 
plants are very productive. In tests at Mt. 
Carmel, Connecticut, Hebron yielded just as 
many quarts as either Premier or Catskill. 
Hebron is not suitable for long distance ship¬ 
ment, but its beauty, productiveness and late 
ripening make it seem worthy of trial in Con¬ 
necticut and other Northern states for local or 
nearby markets. Price list, page 35. 
New York 
This is the sweetest straw¬ 
berry grown. The plant is 
a vigorous grower, produc¬ 
ing a moderate number of 
large, healthy plants. The berries are medium 
to large in size, dark red in color, but only mod¬ 
erately firm in texture. New York is a home 
garden berry. It is the only strawberry we 
know of that is sweet before it gets red. Price 
list, page 3 5. 
A fancy late shipping berry, large, 
solid, handsome, moderately pro¬ 
ductive. Needs liberal fertiliza¬ 
tion. Berries often sell with 
Chesapeake. Makes plants freely but needs 
springy land for big crops. Gandy is an old 
favorite which many growers refuse to give up. 
Where it does well it is a real profit maker. We 
recommend limiting Gandy plants in the row to 
four to six plants per square foot and fertilizing 
in late summer. Growers who want to extend 
their season very late will find Gandy one of 
the best of all varieties for that purpose. We 
have a nice lot of plants. Price list, page 35. 
A fairly good berry, not outstand¬ 
ing in any respect. Grown chiefly 
because it is so very late. The 
new Redstar is just as late and 
superior in every other respect. Price list, 
The news is spreading! 
Proof is piling up! Green 
Mountain is not only a 
fine everbearer, but is one 
of the most productive 
very late berries for the 
spring crop. Here’s what 
growers are saying: “Last 
year our acre of Green Mountain plants gave us 
more berries than any bed of equal size we 
ever bad”.—Mr. C. L. Sargent, Orange Co., Vt. 
“I bad a heavy crop on my Green Mountain vines 
in June and they are as full its they can be of 
berries this fall. They sure are fine big ber¬ 
ries”.—Art Worden, Decatur County, Iowa. 
Green Mountain should be grown on fairly 
rich, moist soil. It takes plenty of support for 
Green Mountain plants to size up and mature 
the tremendous crop of spring berries which 
they set and are capable of producing. 
The spring crop of Green Mountain comes in 
very late and usually brings good prices because 
most other good berries are gone. Berries are 
very firm and the quality is good. 
An interesting thing is that spring berries of 
Green Mountain are conic in shape, having a 
fine appearance similar to Aroma or Chesapeake. 
The summer and fall berries are long and 
rather flat as shown in the picture (page 23). 
According to our arrangement with the patent 
holders, we may sell you Green Mountain plants 
to use and propagate for your own use but not 
for sale. 
Try Green Mountain in the Middle and North¬ 
ern States as a very late, solid, productive, 
spring variety. Price list, page 35.
