. Allen's book of berries : 1951. Nurseries (Horticulture) Maryland Salisbury Catalogs; Nursery stock Maryland Salisbury Catalogs; Strawberries Maryland Salisbury Catalogs. KLONMORE Strictly a berry for a part of the south—the lower part of the Gulf states, Florida and the eastern coast area of Georgia. A cross of Klondyke and Blakemore, light in color, uniform in shape, attrac- tive in appearance, and firm enough to ship anywhere. In the regions indicated Klonmore is much better in quality and is said to be more productive than Blakemore, Klondyke or Mis- sionary.

Price list, page 31. KLONDYKE A solid southern shipping berry which until Blake- more appeared was grown on more acres than any other variety. Still widely grown, but has been re- placed in many sections by Blakemore and Klonmore Berries firm, light, ripen evenly, good for process- ing.

Season of ripening about the same as Blake- more. Productiveness about the same—sometimes more, sometimes less than Blakemore. Color light, but not quite as light as Blakemore, with light color retained on holding. A better shipping berry, with berries even firmer than Blakemore. Excellent for freezing or processing, being just as good as Blakemore for this purpose. Both Tennessee Shipper and Blakemore are quite tart, with little to choose between them in qual
