Locally grown and home grown berries are being consumed in record numbers!

More people are demanding healthier foods that taste great through the entire year. Our berry plants will produce earlier and later in the season, increasing the possibility of having fresh berries during the entire summer up to the first killing freeze.

We sell the most varieties of strawberries and raspberries.

This allows berry production to occur in more growing areas. Berry plant varieties do have their limits of heat and cold tolerance. Healthier plants given a little help can produce amazing results. Our shared experiences with cultural practices including irrigation, pruning, and mulching will help you realize the potentials of our plants.

Check out what our customers are saying about Nourse Farms at davesgarden.com!

Shrinking budgets for strawberry and bramble research have made it essential to generate funding from other sources. nASGA and nARBA have contacted nurserymen in the US and Canada with a plan to collect $1.00/1000 strawberry plants and $0.01/bramble plant sold during the course of a year. Funds collected are then distributed to research projects that have been approved by the committees of these groups. nourse Farms is an active participant in this voluntary collection program.

Currants and gooseberries provide an excellent low border, and gooseberry bushes’ thorns will keep out unwanted pests.

Strawberries make a perfect ground cover. Planting a few varieties will produce berries all season long.

elderberry bushes are fast growing and hardy. They typically grow quite large and full with clusters of tiny white flowers in late spring followed by clusters of berries in late summer.

The No Planting Zone is a guideline for all of our plants.

Planting in areas that see little or no sun will lead to plants that will struggle to survive. if plants do survive, the small crop produced will have a lot of disease pressure.

NORTH

The Caution Zone is a place where plants will struggle during high heat months. Because of extra protection from wind and higher temperatures, plants and fruit can get an overdose of sun and heat.

Cane plantings such as blackberries and raspberries will climb fences and trellises and become a lovely ornamental hedge; they will also burst with color in the spring just before bearing their fruit.

You can

Blueberry bushes, excellent for beginners, develop into 4- to 6-foot tall shrubs that turn a brilliant red in the fall.

Grow Healthy!

Growing berries is not just a way of assuring an abundance of fresh, delicious and colorful fruit; it’s also an easy way to add beauty and interest to your landscape. since each variety of plant has its own distinct growth habit, the benefit of planting berries offers both aesthetic and practical rewards. While choosing nourse farms as your supplier of berry plants will get your garden off to a healthy start, eating more fruit can help you grow healthy in both mind and body!

S T R A W B e R R i e S Nourse Farms is excited to offer 3 new strawberry varieties for 2014.

We’ve been testing these varieties over three years to make sure they add something unique and improved over existing berries on the market. Each one of these new selections promises superior flavor and production potentials than that of their seasonal rivals. Our list of strawberry varieties will allow you to grow delicious strawberries from June right through to the first hard frost - even in cool, northern climates and higher elevations! Growing several varieties of strawberries not only extends your production season, it also spreads the risk of loss to weather and garden pests. Your biggest challenge will be to limit yourself to just one or two varieties.

See pages 7 and 11 for strawberry planting guidelines and tips. visit our website for additional information and diagrams!

ZONES

Most strawberry growers allow their beds to become over grown with too many plants. Maintaining a minimum of 4-6 inches between plants will yield bigger and juicer berries.

Take time to locate good straw mulch. Hay or cheap straw will carry pounds of weed seeds.

Apply the straw in mid to late november, just as the soil begins to freeze. We believe 2-3 inches over the entire bed is best. We do not recommend leaves.

Weed often and weed well, do not allow weeds to become established. A big mistake people make is to till the soil too deep. We recommend shallow tilling at 1 inch or less.

Avoid common mistakes Read free planting guide 1-3 months before planting.

Plants will fail to flourish if roots are too deep or too shallow.

Pack soil firmly around the roots.

Do not plant near wild plants or plants whose origins are unknown.

Water well one to three times a week, not every day.

Healthy berry plants require these important elements: 1.

Planting time. We recommend planting when soil temperatures exceed 40 degrees.

One of the biggest mistakes is planting in cold and wet soils. As a rule, we recommend planting at least 2 weeks after the earliest date on the zone chart. We do not recommend fall planting in the northeast or midwest.

2.

A sunny, weed-free location with at least a half-day of sunlight.

3.

clean beds that are frequently weeded. We recommend every 7-14 days.

4.

Well-drained soil. For poor drainage conditions, consider raised beds.

5.

Proper soil pH. Matching soil pH to plant requirements can be a huge factor in your success. Sample the soil before planting and contact your local cooperative extension office for assistance.

6.

Crop rotation. Avoid planting strawberries or raspberries in soils where previous crops have included strawberries, raspberries, potatoes, tomatoes, eggplant or peppers. These crops may harbor the soil pathogens Verticillium, Phytophthora and nematodes and may affect your new plants.

7.

Irrigation. Maintain proper moisture levels throughout the season and, most importantly, during the establishment period. Drip irrigation is imperative when planting in raised beds.

Avoid fertilizer burn by fertilizing only after plants are established.

Do not soak plants in water more than 1 hour!

Strawberry Planting Tips

Asparagus Planting Tips

Avoid planting strawberries in soils where previous crops have included raspberries, potatoes, tomatoes, eggplant or peppers. These crops may harbor soil pathogens, which may affect your new plants.

Do not mulch using materials like decayed or wet leaves that tend to mat down and can smother plants.

Do not renovate day-neutral strawberries.

Spacing: Unless otherwise noted, plant 12 to 18 inches in the row, 3 to 4 feet between rows.

Depth is important — see detailed planting guide. Roots should be planted straight down.

Maintain a pH between 6.5 and 6.8.

Do not add compost to soil until plants are growing.

Spacing: 12 to 14 inches between plants, 3 feet between rows with furrows 8 inches deep. For heavier, clay-like soils, plant 6-8 inches deep. vERy ImPORTANT! Asparagus requires very sweet soil with pH 7.2. Use soil tests to check and maintain soil pH and phosphorous levels. Make soil pH adjustments before you plant, using lime.

Rhubarb Planting Tips Water well during excessive heat.

Spacing: 3 feet; 5 to 6 feet between rows. Set buds about 1 inch below soil surface.

Maintain a pH between 6.0 and 6.8.

Bramble Planting Tips Avoid planting the roots too deep.

Do not plant green tissue culture plants until the danger of frost has passed.

Your plants will come with one packet of Viterra Agrigel®. Use it at planting to help maintain moisture and establish plants with little stress.

Spacing: For raspberries, unless otherwise noted, 18 to 24 inches for reds and yellows; 20 to 24 inches for blacks. Plant blackberries 3 to 4 feet apart.

Between rows, leave 8 to 12 feet depending on machinery.

Maintain a pH between 6.5 and 6.8.

Horseradish Planting Tips Spacing: 10 to 12 inches between plants, 3 feet between rows. Plant at 45-degree angle with flat end facing up; the flat end should be about 1 inch below the soil surface.

Maintain a pH between 6.2 and 6.7.

Gardening Resources

Blueberry Planting Tips ImPORTANT! A pH of 4.5 to 4.8 is required; 5.0 is too high! For best results, amend pH levels before planting and apply garden sulfur regularly.

To establish plants successfully without prior pH adjustments, read our planting guide.

Excessive sulfur can be toxic.

Do not use leaves or sawdust as mulch. They inhibit hydration.

Do not use fertilizer that contains potassium chloride.

Do not fertilize at planting.

Do not fertilize in late summer or early fall. This could lead to new growth, which is susceptible to winter injury and disease.

Spacing: 4 to 5 feet in the row, with 8 to 12 feet between rows. Be careful not to plant too deeply.

G U i D e l i n e S

Use Agrigel® for Veggies, Too We’ve had great success by giving berry plants and vegetables a boost of Agrigel. Keep some on hand!

Blueberries can last for several decades if the pH is below 5.0 and they are planted with wood chips. Following our directions in the planting guide will greatly contribute to your success.

Mulch your blueberries every year with wood chips that are 3-6 months old.

This will help keep weeds down and provide a great place for roots to grow.

At maturity, six plants can feed a family of four for a year!

Do not use softened water on blueberries. The salts will hurt the plants.

Blueberries only utilize ammoniated forms of nitrogen.

Do not use regular 10-10-10.

Millennium

Released from the asparagus breeding program of Guelph, Ontario, Canada, Millennium is establishing itself to be a high performing variety. Originally thought to be best adapted to heavier soils, various trials and results from our grower surveys indicate it is adapted to a wide range of soil types. In a North Carolina trial, accumulating six years of data, it was the second highest producer on a sandy soil site. In our trial, Millennium has been productive, with high quality spears, is tender and has good asparagus flavor. We highly recommend this variety. Zones 3-8.

Jersey Supreme

Long-term investment Asparagus, rhubarb and horseradish are all plantings that will continue to yield abundantly for 15 to 20 years if given the proper care. Get ahead of the game with our one-year-old asparagus roots, which meet the nursery standard for two-year-old crowns. Growers have been impressed at how these bigger crowns are jumping out of the ground sooner than others. The new hybrids resist fusarium crown rot and other diseases that weaken asparagus plants.

rhubarb

This is a unique asparagus variety. Its attractive purple color, milder flavor and tenderness distinguish this variety from others. In addition, our trials indicate Purple Passion has productive yields. For best performance, plant spacing for Purple Passion is 6 to 8 inches apart in the row instead of the usual 12-inch spacing. When cooked, the bright purple color is reduced, but when served fresh in salads it provides a colorful and flavorful accent. Zones 3-8.

Pacific Purple NEW FOR 2014!

This variety was bred by Dr. Peter Falloon from Aspara Pacific in New Zealand. This new purple variety is high performing, producing higher yields than Purple Passion as well as many of the green varieties.

It is unique in the way it holds a deep purple color through the season and it is very tender with a sweet flavor, distinctive from the green varieties. As Pacific Purple produces especially large-sized spears, we recommend planting the crowns 8 inches apart rather than at the usual 12 inch spacing. This practice will produce more normal-sized diameter spears.

We highly recommend this variety. Grows best in zones 3-8.

Tart, tasty, versatile ribes Admired for generations in Europe for their adaptability as plants and their versatility as food, currants and gooseberries – known collectively as ribes – are growing in popularity in this country. Gooseberries are good cooked, and eaten fresh. They offer a tasty alternative to grapes. Both make excellent jams. Currants, which make a refreshing juice, provide more vitamin C than fresh oranges. Ribes can handle long cold winters, and have excellent shelf-life. They can stay on the vine for up to two weeks, and store well in the refrigerator. red currants
