Excerpt from Allen's Book of Berries, 1914This berry has made a great record since it was first put on the market. It is said to be a cross seedling of Excelsior and Aroma, and was originated in Missouri Growers on the peninsula are very enthusiastic about it, and we are receiving good reports from many sections. It is the best large, early, firm, market berry that we know of. Where it has been seen in fruit, almost everybody wants plants. The growth is distinctly luxurious and thrifty. The foliage stands up erect, and is distinct from that of any other variety. The leaves are thick and leathery, with a healthy, vigorous appearance, looking as though they had been varnished. The berries average large in size, ripen early, and are very firm, which means a great deal to commercial growers. Judging by the experience of some growers with whom I am acquainted, I would advise that if you wish to pay off that little mortgage on your home, or add to your bank account, plant an acre or two of Early Ozark Strawberries for the early market, it has been a great help in that direction to some growers, and I have no doubt you will find it of very great assistance in your case. My stock of plants of the Early Ozark this season is very fine, and I am sure you will be pleased with the plants I will send you.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
