. Pot-Grown Strawberry Plant. Layer Plants. A full list of layer plants will be announced in September. They are not so desirable as pot- grown plants and will not pro- duce as large a crop of fruit next spring; but they are cheaper, and more available for extensive plantings. Under proper au- tumn treatment they will pro- duce quite satisfactory results. NOTE.—A "layer" straw- berry plant is one that has taken root by its own effort, whereas a '' pot-grown '' plant has been aided by human skill in making strong and compact roots. The "pot-grown" plant is stronger to begin
