‘Armore 
Crossing the Aroma and Blakemore strawberry has 
produced what many Missouri strawberry growers con- 
sider the perfect variety. Named ARMORE by the orig- 
inator, H. S. Swartout of the University of Missouri. The 
variety has been tested extensively in the important grow- 
ing areas of the state. The berries are large size, bright 
red in color and are very firm. Plants are strong and vig- 
orous and are prolific producers of quality fruit that 
promise to make an important place for the new variety 
on the market. The yield has been as much as 100 crates 
per acre more than the nearest competing variety which 
is Blakemore. Fruit begins ripening a few days later than 
the Blakemore and plants continue to produce after all 
the Aroma berries are harvested. In contrast to many 
varieties the size remains uniformly large even to the 
last picking. Our supply of these plants is very limited, 
however, Waller Brothers would be very glad for you to 
try out this new and promising variety in your area. 
‘Aroma 
Aroma is an old and well tried variety which has 
been a favorite in some sections for many years. Popular 
late shipping berry for south central states. The fruit 
is large, bright red with delicious aromatic odor and 
flavor, hence the name Aroma. A nice glossy berry with 
bright green cap and attractice appearance. Entire crop 
sizes up well for profitable long distance shipping. A 
real money maker for many growers. 
‘Bellmar 
A FANCY EARLY SHIPPING BERRY 
The Gellmar has a number of qualities which make it 
outstanding in any list of strawberries. In some instances 
this berry has been reported to yield as high as 5,000 
quarts to the acre. 
As compared with Premier the plants are more vig- 
orous and produce more freely; the blossoms are perfect, 
ripening almost a week earlier than Premier and fruit- 
ing about as long. They are firmer than Premier and not 
so acid as Missionery. They rank high in dessert quality. 
The Bellmar plant growth is bright glossy green. 
The berries are a luscious bright red. Their bright green 
caps gives them a very effective appearance. This, to- 
gether with their large size, makes them one of the most 
beautiful berries we have ever grown. 
“Blakemore 
Our “Number One” berry this year. The Blakemore 
has been successfully grown from Maryland to Calif- 
ornia. Ninety-nine per cent of the berries shipped from 
White County, Arkansas, the largest berry growing 
district in the country, are Blakemore. 
The Blakemore is firmer than either of its parents. 
It will not puff and become soft during hot, moist weath- 
er. It will not bleed unless given unnecessary abuse and 
unlike many other early berries, it retains its bright red 
coloring long after picking. This fact, coupled with its 
earliness, gives it a great advantage in the wholesale 
markets.
