Description

Excerpt from Allen's Descriptive Catalogue of Choice Strawberry Plants: Grown and for Sale by W. F. Allen, Jr.; Spring 1894 One plant bore 125 berries. And ripened every one of them. They are fine flavored and deliciously sweet, and will bear shipping well. Having cultivated the berry for two years, I can say that it is the best berry in existence, both for table and market - Wm. M. Valentine. In conclusion will say that my stock was grown from plants procured direct from the introducer and are strictly pure, and being grown in a rich loam they are very large, vigorous and. Well rooted plants. My plants of this variety will average at least twice as large as those sent me by the introducer last spring and are worth much more than small, poorly-rooted plants. Robison. - Was sent to me by Mr. John Little, of Ontario, Canada. It is one of the finest growers on the place. We had single leaves of this variety almost as big as your hand and not a spot of rust to be seen. I have a great deal of faith in this new berry-although I have not seen it fruit. I shall plant quite a lot of them myself and would advise our patrons to try a few. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
