Gandy originated with W. G. Gandy, Newport, New Jersey, in 1885. Perfect.

Once widely and com- monly grown, Glen Mary is still prized in New York and New England for its exceed- ingly productive vines and its handsome, well-flavored fruits. Several faults mar the variety: the fruit-stems are too slender to hold the fruit off the ground; the foliage is susceptible to leaf-spot; the plants thrive only on very heavy and enriched soils; and the blossoms are net entirely self-fertile. The variety originated with J. A. Ingram, East Bradford, Pennsylvania, in 1896. Partially perfect. Plants rather small, spreading, fairly vigorous, somewhat susceptible to rust ; runners moderate; leaves small, leaf-stalks slender ; fruit-stems slender, long, prostrate; calyx of medium size, tiat, often discolored.
