Nurseries (Horticulture) Catalogs; Fruit Catalogs; Fruit trees Catalogs; Trees Catalogs; Asparagus Catalogs. 7 Premier, America's Most Popular Berry, ABERDEEN A comparatively new variety. The plants show unusual thriftiness, making abundance of new plants. The Aberdeen is un- usually productive, equaling or surpassing the Prem- ier. The berries will average larger than Premier, being somewhat pointed in shape, and most every ber- ry is perfect in shape. Its ripening period extends from two to three weeks. DORSETT THE BERRY SUPREME One of The Best of The Recently Introduced Berries. Proving the Ideal Berry, Combining Yigorousness, Productiveness and Quality. Released for introduction by the U. S. Department of Agriculture spring of 1933. The Dorsett surely makes a worthy companion for the Fairfax as each of them seem to have their advantages. The foliage of Dorsett re- sembles that of Blakemore to some extent, apparently not being as vigorous as Fairfax but equally as resist- ant to diseases. The foliage and fruiting stems are more erect than Premier and it is a free plant maker. The fruit is usually conic in shape. The color is bright red similar to Blakemore. The berries will average much larger than Blakemore although not quite so large as Fairfax. The flavor of Dorsett is not equal to Fair- fax but superior to other Early berries and can be classed among the best. The Dorsett is not as firm as the Fairfax but is equal to Premier so should be a good commercial variety because of its productiveness, at- tractive color, and excellent quality for an early berry. (Dr. Burrell). An old-time uni- versal favorite of the Warfield type berry. Conceded to be the same as the Dr. Burrell. Makes abundance of thrifty plants even under adverse soil and climatic conditions. Very productive of med- ium-size berries of average quality. Same as Senator Dunlap. F
