GREEN MOUNTAIN MASTODON A FINE NEW EVERBEARER FOR COLD CUM ATE 5 £r HEAVY 50IL The finest crop of Everbearing strawberries we have ever seen was of the Green Mountain variety on the farm of The Aiken Nurseries in Vermont. It has made a very fine record there for productive- ness and profit, producing good crops in both the first and second years. The berries are medium to large in size, have a bright glossy red skin and prominent yellow seeds which makes them very attractive. The quality is very mild and sweet. The texture is firm and somewhat dry, making them excellent for shipping. In plant growth Green Mountain is more vigorous than the other Ever- bearing varieties. It makes as large a plant as Mastodon and sets them almost as freely as Gem. Green Mountain seems to be best adapted to cool climates and heavier soils. When grown here in Maryland it does not start bearing in summer as early as Gem and Mastodon and when we have a long cool fall before our first freezes Green Moun- tain will outyield the others for late berries, with perhaps as large a total production as Gem. We have had some very profitable crops with this variety even this far south. Green Mountain is a patented variety, the patent being held by the introducers. It is understood when you purchase plants of this variety that you purchase the right to the fruit crops produced and to propagate plants for your own use, but not to sell or give away. We are selling Green Mountain under special arrange- ment with the patent owners. Green Mountain is highly recommended for heavier soil types from the latitude of Virginia north. Price list, page 35.
