German Angora
One of my most novel outcrossed types; this variety has typical
'Angora'-type densely white-pubescent leaves, but came from
fruit of German paste; fruits ovate, fuzzy, 2½"
long with good flavor; although this should be stabilized,
be sure to rogue out any non-pubescent seedlings.

German Red Strawberry
3-5" heart-shaped meaty red fruits on 4½' vines;
incredible sweet-rich flavor which I thought beat Brandywine
hands down; one of my favorite 5 varieties; the fruits really
do look like giant red strawberries.
