. Allen's book of berries for 1939. Nurseries (Horticulture) Maryland Salisbury Catalogs; Nursery stock Maryland Salisbury Catalogs; Strawberries Maryland Salisbury Catalogs. BLARE MORE EARLY-SOLID PRODUCTIVE A GREAT SH/PP//VG BERRY. IN THE South and as far North as Maryland and Virginia, Blakemore has proved to be one of the finest of all shipping berries. Probably no new variety has ever become so widely grown in such a short time. Blakemore has nearly everything to make it a great shipping berry. The one big objection is the tendency to sport into yellow strains. We are glad to announce that growers can now get YELLOWS FREE BLAKEMORE and these plants are available at prices no higher than the old strains. The plants are so vigorous that they will make a good fruiting bed on almost any kind of soil and with a minimum of care, even though the individual plants are quite small. They are very productive, often producing as much as 10,000 quarts per acre, and the record of several years indicates that the blossoms are quite frost resistant. Attractive color. The berries are light red in color, ripening evenly all over. This light color is retained by the berries for a long period and gives the appearance of being in good condition even after they start to break Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Allen Co.
