No fruit is found in more gardens than the Strawberry, which can be a, 
successfully grown in almost all soils and climates, requiring little atten- ie 
tion other than keeping the beds free of weeds. It, however, responds to ‘if 
fertilization and culture. A lot of delicious fruit can be obtained from 
a very small section of your garden. 








Strawberries may be had in assorted varieties. It is certainly advisable 
to have a selection furnishing berries throughout the season, but we do 
not recommend more than a sufficient number of varieties to cover the 
season and furnish proper pollination. From our list such a selection can be 
made—including two of the leading Everbearers to furnish Strawberries 
during the Fall, when berries are at a premium. 
BE SURE TO PLANT FOR THE FROZEN FOOD LOCKER AND 
ENJOY FRESH STRAWBERRIES THROUGHOUT THE YEAR. 
One's imagination can almost run wild in thinking about ways to serve this 
toothsome frozen fruit, for there will always be something special about 
serving Strawberries in January with all the garden goodness of June, 
_ whether you serve them as a plain fruit sauce, in pies, shortcakes or 
myriad other ways. 
Spring Planting Recommended for Strawberries in climates 
having freezing and thawing. While we can furnish plants for both 
Fall and Spring planting, we have found by experience that on an average 
better results are obtained from Spring planting. We can usually start 
digging and shipping Strawberry Plants in early November and con- 
tinue until June, most Midwinter shipments going to points farther South. Standard Spring Fruiting

tities than 25,

BLAKEMORE. The berry of the South, where more Blakemore are 
grown than all other varieties combined, producing year after year 
crops of early, bright red, firm, sweet berries. Both a good shipper 
and a popular home variety. The Blakemore can be grown in all 
parts of the United States where Strawberries are cul- 
tivated, but due to its hardiness, freedom from dis- 
ease and dependability—producing crops under 
most unfavorable conditions—it is the universal 
berry throughout the South. Excellent freezer.

varieties. Also popular for the home garden. Large, 
good quality, firm shipper.« Good freezer.

Ambrosia (Late) 
AMBROSIA (Zcz) 
Considered the latest, largest and best of all late Strawberries. Being a recent 
introduction, it has not been widely planted. We fruited it for the first time in 
our Nursery in the Spring of 1947, when 90% of other varieties were killed 
by a freeze on May 10th. Ambrosia produced a full crop of enormous, firm, 
sweet berries without rain from the time of bloom until harvested. Appar- 
ently a sure cropper and in every respect a wonderful berry. $1.00 per 25, 
$1.75 per 50, $2.75 per 100, $5.50 per 250, $8.50 per 500, $14.00 per 1000.
