HUGE BERRIES—VERY LATE 14 Vesper, which was tested as New Jersey selection Xo. 157, provides strawberry growers with the big- gest and one of the latest of all strawberries. This variety is truly amazing because of its huge berries, which are as large as any variety we know. It is much like Jerseybelle in most respects, which it now displaces as champion for berry size. For lateness it is about as late as Redstar, which is generally con- sidered to be the lat-est of all June bearing straw- berries. Foliage of Vesper is generally vigorous but like Jerseybelle is a bit more susceptible to leaf troubles than some varieties. But with proper grow- ing conditions Vesper can be one of the most remark- able strawberries you have ever seen. The unusuaU}' late ripening of this variety is additional reason why it can be a real profit maker, since you will still have fine berries after other straw- berries are gone. Be sure to \r\ at least a few of this amazing new variety that will show you and your friends just how big a strawberry- can be. 25 Plants $; 50 for $; 100 for $; 1,000 for $ Plus Postage.
