ANDREWS STRAWBERRY Plants 
"STRAWBERRIES 
Most people are not concerned with why green Strawberry plants produce 
red berries. They are more concerned with getting the red berries, and lots 
of them. The ultimate goal is bowls and bowls of “Strawberries, sugar and 
cream” over a long period of time. 
Brushing away the bubbles and froth, fancy names and untried varieties, 
we find the following varieties as the most desirable and most dependable. 
These are the varieties that, under average conditions, will give you the most 
bowls of “Strawberries, sugar and cream,” the most crates on the market and 
the most money in the pocket. 
GEM Everbearinq 
HEAVY CROPS. Gem bears very heavily—many growers have averaged 
a quart to a plant the first year. No need to ever hunger for strawberries. 
Gem plants set in April or May will bear this year from July until winter. 
HIGH QUALITY. Gem is of good size, light in color, very showy and 
attractive and has a very fine, rich flavor. 
WAYZATA Everbearinq 
LARGE BERRIES. Wayzata berries are large and well 
shaped and hold their size well throughout the season 
instead of running to nubbins the latter part of the season. 
Often nine or ten berries will cover a pint box. 
QUICK PROHTS. Gem is ideal for market. It is firm 
enough to withstand the necessary handling, and is sure 
to bring high prices at either roadside stands or on the 
city markets. Get your patch started this year; they will 
give you enough berries for your own family and a surplus 
to sell to neighbors or ship to market. Set plants 12 to 18 
inches apart, with rows 2/i to 7>Yl feet apart. In some 
seasons the plants may need thinning for best production. 
Sugar and Cream” 
BRIGHT RED AND HIGH QUALITY. The bright 
red color, and high quality of Wayzata are retained even 
several days after being picked. This is a great advantage 
on the market and brings the grower top money. 
PLANTS ARE HEALTHY AND HARDY. Clean, 
healthy foliage and a vigorous deep root system are char' 
acteristics of Wayzata that enable it to thrive and produce 
so heavily. 
MONEY MAKERS. Since its introduction Wayzata 
Strawberries have consistently brought from a third to a 
half more money than other Strawberries on the Minne' 
apolis and St. Paul markets. They have netted as high as 
$700.00 to $1,200.00 per acre. 
BEAVER 
Beaver is rapidly becoming popular on account of 
heavy yield, early season, good color and excellent shipping 
quality. The fruit is firm, and red clear through, making 
it especially good for canning, as it retains its color in the 
can. The flavor is not as high as Premier and Dunlap but 
the heavy yield and other good qualities make it a desirable 
Strawberry to plant. Beaver is recommended especially 
for sandy soil, as it appears to do better on sandy soils 
than on heavy clay. 
PREMIER 
CATSKILL 
A strong, vigorous grower, a sure cropper, and a real 
money'maker. We think Catskill is the very best mid' 
season Strawberry. Catskill is a very large berry, some 
of them perhaps a trifle rough, but its big size and bright 
color make it very attractive and in demand on the market. 
The quality of the berry is good, fully as good as Premier. 
Premier is still holding its own with many growers as 
the top No. 1 Strawberry for this country. It is a fine 
early berry. It does well over a wide range of territory 
and on almost any soil. The berries are good average size, 
a medium red color and show up well in the package. 
It id firm enough to ship moderate distances and the quality 
is better than most other varieties now generally grown. 
DUNLAP 
The berries are medium to large, conical and often slightly necked, dark 
crimson with a deep red flesh, quality very good. The plants are healthy and 
vigorous. Very productive. Grows on all kinds of soil, and in extremely 
cold climates. A good variety for canning and a good pollinizer for pistillate 
varieties. Holds up a long while after being picked. Season a ffcw days after 
Premier begins bearing.
