In the south and central berry areas the Blakemore has proved to be one of the finest of all Early shipping berries. A cross between Premier and Missionary orig- inated and introduced by the U. S. Department of Agri- culture. Possibly no new variety has become so widely grown in so few years since introduction and proven so satisfactory as a commercial berry. The old type orig- inally released showed a tendency to sport into inferior yellow foliaged strains. It is a very free plant maker and responds quickly to good treatment. It is an abund- ant bearer, the fruit averages large and retains its bright attractive red color even after being picked sev- eral days. Quality is superior to Missionary and Klon- dyke but not equal to Premier. It will ripen a few days earlier than Premier. The foliage is healthy and vig- orous. The plants hold up well during a drought. The berries are firm and unexcelled as a long distance ship- ping berry and preferred by all Strawberry processing companies. If your soil is only moderate in fertility PLANT BLAKEMORE and you are assured of a good set of plants for picking. Whether your soil is sandy or clay you can depend on Blakemore producing better beds and producing fruit where many other varieties will fail for you.
