Strawberry Plants
POT-GROWN

Those marked (P.) have pistillate or imperfect
flowers, and must be planted near perfect-flower-
ing kinds, in order that the flowers may fertilize.
The varieties not so marked are bi-sexual, or
perfect-flowering, and can be planted alone.
When properly pollenized the pistillate varieties
are the most prolific. ;

_ Most dealers recommend planting Strawberries

in August. However, we hope you will see the

advisability of setting pot-grown plants as early

in July as possible, when they will produce a

large crop the next summer and we believe if

you follow our advice the results will be much
more satisfactory.

Our list includes all the newest and best
standard varieties, extra strong, healthy plants.
We exercise the utmost care in packing for ship-
ment, which is of great importance to the pur-
chaser. Place your orders early.
