weather and a prolific producer of uni- 
formly large berries throughout the 
season. It adapts itself to a wide range 
of soils and climate. It is a shy pro- 
ducer of runner plants and is adapted 
to the hill system of planting. 
The WAYZATA is a large berry, well 
formed, glossy in appearance and red to 
the core, with a sweet, delicious flavor 
and an inviting aroma. Often as few as 
30 berries will fill a pint box and we 
have picked 18 that made a pint. Un- 
surpassed for canning because of its 
sweetness and rich red coloring, it does 
not fade out in the jars after canning 
process as many berries do. It is ex- 
cellent for jams and for freezing pur- 
poses because of its rich red luster, its 
glossiness and its firmness. 
Plants of WAYZATA set out in the 
spring should have all blossoms re- 
moved until the first of July; thus, the 
energy of the plant is turned tempor- 
arily from fruiting toward the devel- 
opment of a larger and stronger growth 
promoting the formation of a greater 
number of crowns and fruit stems that 
will begin bearing in August and will 
continue to bear until frosts inhibit the 
further development of fruit. 
The WAYZATA strawberry is the 
heaviest fruit producing plant in exis- 
tence. From an acre and a quarter of 
Wayzata plants, during August, Sept. 
and October 1946, we picked 7594 pints 
of berries that sold for $1898.64 in addi- 
tion to those that were used for home 
consumption. No other strawberry is 
comparable to it in per plant yield. 

Keep These Facts In Mind When 
Ordering Wayzata Strawberry 
Plants 
WAYZATA does not make many 
plants but it surely does produce big 
crops of berries because all its vitality 
goes into the fruit; making the berries 
very large, well formed and evenly col- 
ored. Each plant has many fruit bear- 
ing crowns. More plants can be set on 
small space and greater crops picked. 
Exceptionally strong growers on any 
good rich soil with good moisture sup- 
ply. Red clear through—no green tips. 
Plant in April—begin picking in July— 
keep picking into October. 
Foliage—A heavy, velvety green, re- 
maining so all summer. 
Hardiness—Exceptionally hardy and 
resistant to severe winter weather. 
Disease Resistance—Remarkably free 
from disease; much less affected by 
mildew and leaf discoloration than other 
strawberry plants. 
June Crops—Will bear a crop of June 
berries the second season almost equal 
to the June bearing varieties. Main crop 
July to October, continuously. 
Acre Yield—Four year average — 200 
24-pint cases. A single plant will often 
produce at one picking as much as half 
pint of fruit. The per plant yield of the 
Wayzata is greater than that of any 
other existing strawberry. 
Size—80 per cent of berries as large 
or larger than the largest other ever- 
bearers. 
Aroma—Delightful and appealing.
