WHITTEN’S 
Better-Value 
GIANT 
BLUEBERRIES 
Whitten’s Cultivated Giant Blueberries offer one of the great- 
est opportunities to the fruit grower! They have proved to be a 
greater money-making proposition than any other fruit. 
Four-year-old plants often yield at the rate of 150 
crates per acre, and 12-pint crates sell at $2.50 per 
crate and more wholesale, right here in Michigan. 
Plants start bearing the second or third year. 
Mature bushes produce as much as seven quarts 
of berries in a single season. With proper care 
a planting lasts for a lifetime, and the first 
crop will pay for the plants! 



























Whitten’s Cultivated Giant Blueberries are 
a proven success. No longer can they be 
classed as a mere novelty. We've taken 
them out of the experimental stage, 
and through improved propagating and 
cultural methods are producing bushes 
that grow and thrive satisfactorily in 
any section of the country where proper soil mois- 
ture and acidity can be provided. Our customers are 
successfully growing Whitten’s Blueberries from 
Maine to California, and from Florida to the State 
of Washington. Experience has taught us how to 
pack and ship them for safe arrival anywhere in 
North America. Each season we make several ship- 
ments of Blueberry bushes to points as far distant 
as Alaska, and even to Hawaii. No matter where 
you live, Whitten’s Giant Blueberry plants will reach 
you in perfect growing condition.

They're Easy to Grow! 
_Just plant the bushes 5x7 ft. apart, and cul- 
tivate as you would any bush fruit. Cultivated 
Blueberries require an acid soil, good drainage, 
and moderate supply of moisture. Almost every 
farm has a bit of low, sour soil which does not 
raise good crops. These worthless spots can be 
turned into real money-makers when planted to 
Blueberries. If you do not have acid soil, this con- 
dition can be easily induced by mixing with your 
surface soil well-rotted leaves, pine needles, saw- 
dust or soil from the bottom of old wood piles. 
The very best thing is our Sodus Acid Humus. 
We offer eight named varieties of Blueberries 
in 1l-yr. to 5-yr. grades. The 3-yr., 4-yr. and 5-yr. 
bushes will bear the first season. If you want 
berries at once, plant these larger grades. We 
recommend Pioneer and Stanley for early; Ranco- 
cas, Jersey, Concord and Adams in the midseason 
varieties; Rubel and Harding for late kinds. Be 
Sure to specify the varieties you want. 
The demand for Blueberry plants so far ex- 
ceeds the supply that we may be sold out of some 
varieties when your order is received. Therefore, 
we reserve the right to substitute another variety 
of equal merit, if out of the kinds you order. We 
recommend planting at least two different va- 
Yieties to insure better pollination and greater 
yield of fruit. All varieties furnished labeled 
true-to-name.
