. 21st annual catalogue for spring 1901 : choice berry plants, & Nursery stock Maryland Catalogs; Nurseries (Horticulture) Maryland Catalogs; Seed potatoes Catalogs; Strawberries Catalogs; Fruit Catalogs. JOHN W. HALL, MARION STATION, MD. 17 Excelsior.—The originator says: "We are proud in being able to offer to our patrons this extra early,large, firm, highly colored and well shaped berry. It is immensely productive and will take the place of Michael's Early. It is a seed- ling of the Wilson polenized by the Hoffman. The plant and fruit will show it is earlier than Michell, larger, firmer, darker color and more productive. It is a remarkably strong grower with very healthy foliage resembling the Hoffman very much; that it is more upright and a much stronger grower. We have fruit- ed this berry two seasons. Plant it if you want a good early straw- berry. Success—A large early straw- berry. A seedling of Bubach No. 3 and Michaels Early. Plants a strong grower and free from rust; very product- ive. Berries nearly as large as Bubach, heart shaped, bright crimson color, ripening evenly all over, season of ripening with the very earliest. Gibson.—A large thrifty plant that makes a good number of strong run- ners. It is a good" bearer. Second early and ripens most of its crop in a short time. The fruit is large to very large, resembles the Marshall; roundish coni- cal, never misshaped and of excellent quality. It seems to do equally as well on light or heavy soil and will undoubtedly become very popular. Cloud.—A strong vigorous grower; very productive and very firm. Season medium; valuable at the south. Margaret.—Plants moderately vigorous and prolific berries, medium to large, with ordinary cultivation, and of uniform size, mostly conical, but sometimes irregular, color bright glossy scarlet, firm and of excellent quality. Season medium to late under high cultivation. The Margaret has given sur. prising results. It has been grown here two seas
