APPEARANCE 
Lindalicious has the appearance of being highly varnished. It 
has a sparkling glossy bright red color. Red color comes from 
the inside of the berry, and when it has reached the white stage 
of ripening you can cut it open and the meat of the berry is 
pink to red in color, before any red color shows on the outside 
of the berry skin. Ripens solid sparkling glossy red color all 
over, with no white ends. Cap stem stands out from the berry, 
making it easy to stem. Yellow seeds stand out from the skin of 
the berry. We have seen no berry that has such eye appeal. 
QUALI TY 
Lindalicious is solid red color all through the meat of the 
berry. No core in the center. Tough skin and protecting seeds 
make 1t the best shipping berry of any we have tested. Tested 
for freezing by individual and quick freezers it has been found 
the best of any berry tested. Many persons have just put the 
berry in quick freezers in original case, just as it came from 
the field, without any sugar and they freeze perfect. For can- 
ning, both by individuals and commercial canners, they have no 
other berry that compares with it. The berries can firm and 
whole, do not collapse, remain whole and firm right to the bot- 
tom of the jar. Flavor is outstanding, is sweeter than Fairfax. 
Processors have tested it for preserves, jams and jellies in 
comparison with other varieties in this district, and they say 
that no other compares with quality of Lindalicious for this 
purpose. 
SIZE and FIRMNESS 
Lindalicious ranges in size from medium to large size, maturing 
the last berries on the vine to larger sizes than any of the 40 
varieties that Mr. Larsen has in his test plots. The meat of the 
berry is exceptionally firm and the skin is tough and well pro- 
tected by the protruding seeds. It ships better than any other 
variety we have tested and holds up days longer. 
ADAPTABILITY 
Here we have it planted on 4 separate fields and the soil ranges 
from sandy loam, gravelly loam, black loam and heavy sandy clay 
loam, and in all these soil conditions we cannot find a fault 
with it. 
SALES VALUE 
Lindalicious was first sold in a small commercial way in 1942 
and the volume has steadily increased with plant production, 
uncil now we have 47 acres that will be in production this 
spring. We have received 50¢ to $1.00 more per case of 12 pint 
cups for Lindalicious than:for any other berry. Never have we 
seen a Berry with such eye appeal and quality that advertises 
itself, like Lindalicious. Chain store buyers, canners and pro- 
cessors have inspected and tested this berry in the field and 
they all pronounce it a sensation and the greatest quality berry
