Nurseries (Horticulture) Maryland Salisbury Catalogs; Nursery stock Maryland Salisbury Catalogs; Strawberries Maryland Salisbury Catalogs. 25 (Minnesota No. 1166) "At last! An everbearing strawberry that has ; One of the leading plant growers in Michigan starts his description of Minnesota 1166 with those words. This same grower considers the flavor good as Wayzata and its productiveness equal to any everbearer he has ever grown. Commenting on the keeping quality of Minnesota he says it will never spoil in the hottest Weather but will dry up like a raisin before it will spoil.

I would recommend them to anyone in cold ; In our experience with Evermore it has been a very vigorous, healthy grower, making plenty of plants, probably more than any other variety. In 1944 Evermore was the most productive everbearer we had. In 1945 not as productive as Gem. The berries are firm, dark, nice looking and fairly good in quality but more tart here than they seem to be when grown farther north. For everyone who has had good success with other everbearers, we strongly recommend trying Evermore. Price list, page 31.

That is certainly distinguished parentage in the Everbearing strawberry group. Good reports have come from a number of places although the variety has not been too widely distributed so far.
