OF CHOICE STRAWBERRY PL A NTS. 27
Text Appearing After Image:
HAVER LAND—Too well known to need describing here. It is one of the old reliable kinds that succeeds everywhere and pleases everybody. My stock of this variety is very fine. I VAN HOE—Is comparatively a new sort, it fruited here last year and I con- sider it a very excellent eaily berry. It is one of the hardiest of plants, has a perfect blossom and is a good bearer. The fruit is large size, perfect in shape, bright red. excellent quality and one of the firmest, making it an excellent shipper. LOVETT—Very productive, medium to large and firm, ripen* the bulk of its enormous crop mid-season to late, though it often has a few scattering early berries. It is a vigorous healthy grower and a strong staminate. making it a valuable variety for fruiting pistillate sorts. EDGAR QUEEN—Vines look as though they had been polished, very vig- orous and healthy . fruit large size firm and productive if under good culture, a favorite with many. Season medium to late. LEADER—This berry when everything is favorable is one of the finest ever produced. It is large size medium early, best quality and very Attractive, al- wavs commanding good price in market. It requires a medium low. rather stiff, springy soil. It is no good on thin light land, but if you kave a soil as above described you can depend on it to please you. Too soft for long shipment.
