All who have grown Peerless or seen it in fruit highly recommend this
variety both for home use and market.
It produces a big spring crop and throughout the summer and fall the
plants are simply a mass of blossoms and fruit.
Peerless, in many respects, bears a close resemblance to Superb. Its
foliage, however, grows taller and more upright than Superb. Its berries
are fully as large as those produced by Superb but are a trifle darker
in color. Both the spring and fall berries are large, round, of glossy
dark-red color and highly flavored. Their beauty attracts the eye and
their flavor satisfies the most exacting epicure. Peerless has been well
termed “The Big Solid Beauty.” For prices of Peerless plants see Page
