Excerpt from Small Fruits: Their Propagation and Cultivation, Including the Grape
A new departure was made in 1806, by one Michael Keen, a celebrated English gardener, who introduced the Imperial, which he grew from seed, and subsequently, from seed of the Imperial, what was long known as Keen's Seedling. This was a wonderful fruit for the time, being large, productive, and of good flavor and habit of growth; but it did not succeed in this country, and was soon supplanted by more hardy sorts. The London Horticultural Society, in 1821, had executed a col ored plate of this strawberry (not a very rare thing now), indi cating its high appreciation of its merits.
The success of Keen excited scores of others to attempt the growing of better varieties from seeds, and from that time to the present, seedlings have been numerous. Little was done in this country, except in imitation of English practices, till about 1834, when Mr. C. M. Hovey produced and introduced what has since been known as Hovey's Seedling, a fruit hardly sur passed by the best varieties of the present time.
