. Allen's 83rd book of berries. Nurseries (Horticulture) Maryland Salisbury Catalogs; Nursery stock Maryland Salisbury Catalogs; Strawberries Maryland Salisbury Catalogs. FAIRFAX Deserves the silver spoon treatment FAIRFAX has just about everything for the grower interested in table fruit. FAIRFAX berries are firm, bright red and beautiful, of good size. They con- tain the least acid of any of the common varieties, which makes them the most deliciously flavorful for desserts.

Vigorous plants The SUNRISE variety has great promise for growers on the watch for an early ripener — well adapted to the Mid-Atlantic states. SUNRISE performs well in runner production, with plants very vigorous. Resistance to verticillium wilt, leaf scorch, mildew, and triple resistance to red stele are strong points in favor of this fine variety.
