‘Sugar Sweet Everbearer 
_«-*‘This is the latest of the New Everbear- 
ing strawberries being offered. Those who 
aS have tried it state they prefer this variety 
to any Everbearer introduced to date. It 
also bears 60 to 90 days after planting, 
berries all summer and fall, followed by a 
. fine crop the following June. Plants are 
_ hardy, and produce runners freely. Berries 
are large, long and pointed—in appearance 
they look like the Missionary berry that is 
+so well known in the south. Berries are dark 
in color and perfectly red clear through— 
-» no green tips. Fruit is firm and very sweet. 
pe _ As the supply of this variety is very limited, 
would advise placing your order early so 
as to avoid disappointement. Prices: 25 
3 plants $1.95; 50 for $3.25; 100 for $5.65; 
See a for $11.75; 500 for $17.50; 1000 for 
; 33.50.

“New Giant Size—Honey Flavored 
iin ~The newest of the everbearers, which 
we can offer in limited quantities only. 
We have never seen a more beautiful 
_. strawberry. Almost round, bright scar- 
-- Jet in color, and the very largest berry 
of all everbearing strawberries. Out- 
yields both Mastodon and Gem. Sweet 
as honey, with very little acid. Ripens 
red all over at the same time, even late 
in the Fall. Bears 60 days after set, and 
will bear the second year as well as the 
first. From late June to late in Novem- 
ber it will be loaded with ripe berries, 
green ones, and blossoms all at the same 
time. This new everbearer should be 
tried out in a small way by all those who 
are interested in this type of berry. 
ig Prices: 12 plants $1.50; 25 for $2.50; 50

The Last Degree in Strawberry Perfection 
For Size, Color and Flavor ~ 
It is our belief that there never has been 
and probably never will be another Ever- 
bearing Strawberry that even approaches 
Gem in the qualities that make for perfec- 
tion. In our opinion Gem is still The Won- 
der Everbearer. 
BIG PROFITS—2 CROPS A YEAR. 
Plant this spring—pick. all summer—you'll 
get back the price paid for the plants, and 
most important, a big profit besides. You'll 
harvest another fine crop the following 
June—two crops in one year. Unlike most 
everbearers, this variety is an excellent 
plant maker. The plants are very healthy 
and vigorous, producing an abundance of 
runners, which bear fruit the first season. 
Berries are large, bright red, firm, 
roundish in shape, rather tart but of good 
flavor and quality. Good for dessert or 
culinary uses. Very attractive in appear- 
ance and sell well on the fresh fruit mar- 
kets. Prices: 25 plants $1.25; 50 for 
$2.00; 100 for $3.50; 250 for $6.75; 500 
for $11.50; 1000 for $20.00. 





IMPORTANT—Please remember that 
Zilke’s strawberry plants are all hand 
cleaned, sorted and bunched.
