the BIG
EVERBEARING WONDER
MALE OR BI-SEXUAL (B)
(For photo-engraving see [Page 57])
This variety derives its name from its many superb characteristics. Its plants grow low and spreading and are exceedingly vigorous, the heavy foliage completely covering the blossoms and berries and furnishing a splendid protection from the hot summer sun and late fall frosts.
Although Superb does not produce as heavily as our other everbearing varieties, its berries which are of the round type are extra large, strictly fancy and most delicious. They are deep red from surface to center and when packed for market present a most beautiful appearance, always finding ready sale at high prices regardless of market conditions. They are of exceptionally firm texture and ideal for shipping as they will carry a considerable distance and arrive in perfect condition. Superb is universally acknowledged “The Big Everbearing Wonder.” For prices of Superb plants see [Page 66], column 5.
“My Superb and Progressive Everbearers fruited forty days last spring. They began fruiting again in August and were loaded with blossoms and fruit right up until winter. The berry illustrations in your catalog have nothing on what I could have shown last season when this patch of Everbearers was fruiting.” R. B. Slaven, West Virginia.
“I have found Kellogg’s Superb Everbearing variety all that you claim for it and expect to set more plants of this variety next season. I have no trouble whatever in disposing of all my extra berries at 35 cents per quart.” Mrs. E. E. Adkins, South Dakota.
“I have had the best of success with Kellogg’s Superb Everbearers. Plants grow as big as a bushel basket and sure are beauties. I am enclosing an order for more plants to be shipped next spring.” Louis Balfanz, Wisconsin.
“Kellogg’s Superb Everbearers and Hearts of Gold Cantaloupes grew side by side in my garden last summer. Both did splendidly and were the very best to be had.” Mrs. L. J. Burckhardt, Kansas.
“We find Kellogg Everbearers fully up to the standard you claim for them. They are the highest quality plants we have ever had.” Peter V. Coddington, New York.
