STREAMLINER STRAWBERRY 
(continued) 
“MR. G. P. HILL of El Monte, of STRAWBERRY WALL FAME, has bought 
Streamliner plants from us for his wall every year since he first 
built it. He just ordered another 400 Streamliner for it Dec. 10th. 
A Burbank grower: ‘The Streamliner is the best strawberry I have 
seen in California, and the only one which does well here.” 
A Calistoga, Napa Co., grower wrote Oct. 17, 1947: “Have you any 
Streamliner strawberry plants? The crop of berries from the acre I 
planted brought me in $2,400 this year. Everyone here is asking me 
for plants.” 
A Roscoe, San Fernando Valley, grower wrote Nov. 11, 1946: “The 
Streamliner strawberry plants I bought from you last spring are 
everything claimed for them. Still picking fine berries.” 
A La Mesa, San Diego Co., grower: ‘‘'We have been MOST HAPPY with 
the STREAMLINER STRAWBERRY plants you sold us last January. It has 
been a great joy to see them produce so quickly and such glorious 
size berries....When is the best time to place order for these 
plants? We have some inquiring friends.’’ 
ROCKHILL STRAWBERRY 
EVERBEARING 
Rockhill is one of the favorite strawberries on the Pacific 
Coast. It is in high favor in Oregon and Washington as well as in 
California. It is very popular in the Monterey-Pacific Grove-—Carmel 
district as well as in Southern California and elsewhere in Calif- 
ornia. 
It usually makes very few runners, although it has been known to 
make runners under heavy irrigation and fertilization. It makes 
large crowns and being usually practically runnerless is propagated 
by crown divisions. It is very productive, with large red berries 
of very delicious flavor. It produces a full crop the same year as 
planted. 
READ WHAT GROWERS HAVE WRITTEN US: 
A Garden Gtove, Orange Co., grower wrote Aug. 10, 1949: 
“Remember the Certified Rockhills you shipped me last December? 
Well, they have been really ‘doing their stuff’, we are picking 
since April and so far 155 boxes, five to eight boxes every other 
day, pretty good for 200 plants, eh, what? I planted 12 to 15 
inches apart in rows 4 feet apart, mulched them well with rye straw 
and kept them well watered, they are continually filled with bloom 
& new berries. When the neighbors look at them they just can’t 
believe their eyes.” 
On Oct. 26th he wrote: “The Certified Rockhills are still going 
strong, and I am getting another 10 rows ready for a planting, the 
same time I planted last year (lst week in Dec.). Please have 500 
plants (Certified Rockhills) reserved for me shipping Dec. Ist. 
“It looks as if there will be no dormant period of my Rockhills 
this year, for they are full of pink, green and bloom and we are 
still picking three times a week. (Since April). Don’t seem right, 
does it?
