Our Peach Trees Are Famous For Growth and Productivity 



PEACH Trees! 



BELLE OF GEORGIA (llb) The unquestioned 

 favorite of all white peaches and a household word 

 with the buying public. Fruits are large, bright, at- 

 tractively covered with red over a creamy white back- 

 ground. The flesh is white, highly flavored, very firm, 

 and aromatic. Trees are very vigorous, hardy, and pro- 

 ductive. Belle of Georgia is the standard by which all 

 white peaches are judged. 



POLLY (lie) A very hardy peach bearing big crops 

 after 20-below-zero winters. It is a freestone of ex- 

 ceptional quality, with a keen peachy taste, juicy and 

 aromatic. The color is a beautiful white overlaid with 

 a rich red blush. Recommended to all growers who 

 wish an exceptional white peach in Elberta season. 



HALE HARRISON (lld) U. S. Plant Patent No. 

 814. We offer this fine peach, often called Hale Harri- 

 son Brilliant or just Brilliant, under license from the 

 patent owner. It ripens just before Elberta, is yellow 

 fleshed, freestone, nicely colored, nearly fuzzless, and 

 generally large throughout the tree. Blossoms are self- 

 fertile and abundant. The tree is vigorous and a heavy 

 bearer. 



Hale Harrison is a good shipper, long keeper, and 

 picks over a long season. Its exceptional quahty makes 

 it a favorite for fresh market and processing outlets. 

 Price for Hale Harrison trees is IO4 more 'per tree than 

 for regular varieties. 



REDSKIN (12) Each year Redskin becomes more 

 popular as the leading peach of the Elberta season. It 

 is a very pretty, large, round freestone with excellent 

 shipping qualities. The yellow flesh is very clear, firm, 

 aromatic, and sweet. Fruits of Redskin are borne in 

 profusion throughout the tree and color well with a 

 deep red blush, even under shady conditions. Processors 

 and fresh market buyers are equally pleased with this 

 fine peach. 



Trees of Redskin are vigorous, fast growing, and pro- 

 ductive. The wood is hardy, and buds survive low tem- 

 peratures when trees are in good physical condition. 

 Redskin trees have the ability to size generous crops 

 well under most conditions. Why don't you bring your 

 plantings in this season up-to-date with Redskin? 



DIXIELAND (12a) This fine new peach is a large 

 freestone and has little pubescence. At maturity, about 

 50% of the surface is covered with an attractive red 

 over a golden yellow ground. The flesh is yellow, firm, 

 of good texture and flavor. It ripens about with Red- 

 skin and Elberta. 



Trees are vigorous, productive, and self-fertile, some- 

 what resistant to bacterial spot and have a chilhng 

 requirement of 750 hours. 



Dixieland was introduced primarily for southern 

 areas, but we believe it worthy of trial in all peach 



ELBERTA (12b) The world's greatest money-making 

 peach. Elberta trees are hardy, disease resistant, very 

 thrifty, and very productive under most conditions. 

 Fruits are large, freestone, colored a deep golden yellow 

 blushed with red. The skin is tough, and the flesh, while 

 tender and juicy, is of such texture that Elberta is 

 famous for its ability to carry to distant markets. 

 Quality is good, and the slight bitterness around the 

 pit is preferred by many. Even though Elberta is an old 

 variety, you may be sure that you will receive the best 

 of Elberta strains from Bountiful Ridge. 



J. H. HALE (12c) It is one-third to one-half larger 

 than Elberta and more highly colored. The skin is deep 

 crimson, smooth, and almost without fuzz. Flesh is 

 golden yellow, firm, and most delicious. A freestone 

 with unusual keeping qualities. Fruit ripens a few days 

 before or with Elberta, but hangs better. NOTE: J. H. 

 Hale does not have an entirely perfect bloom and needs 

 cross-pollination for best results. 



WHITE HALE — N.J. 63 (12d) A large white-flesh- 

 ed freestone of good quality, ripening with J. H. Hale. 

 Tree is vigorous. A fine white-fleshed peach to follow 

 Belle of Georgia. 



JERSEYQUEEN (12e) A fine new variety, formerly 

 tested as N. J. 216, which ripens with Elberta. It has 

 better color, better quality, and better shelf fife than 

 Elberta. It is large and attractive. Trees are vigorous 

 and productive. Flowers are large and showy, with 

 good pollen. Yields have been satisfactory on limited 

 acreage, even after hard winters. 



JEFFERSON (13) Jefferson is a new, round, yellow- 

 fleshed freestone ripening about two days after Elberta. 

 Fruits are quite comparable to J. H. Hale, but the 

 color is much brighter. The trees of Jefferson are more 

 vigorous than Hale and produce a heavy set of buds 

 vifhich are self-fertile and quite tolerant to spring frosts. 

 We suggest that you u.se Jefferson in combination with 

 Washington and Madison for a full season of frost- 

 tolerant peaches in any area where spring frosts present 

 a problem. 



SHIPPERS LATE RED— Hale Type (i3a) A proven 



variety to follow Elberta which has class and is a good 

 money-maker. Fruits, which ripen just after Elberta 

 and Hale, are very large, very highly colored, yellow 

 fleshed, freestone, and of exceptional quahty. Shippers 

 Late Red is a good shipper, stores well in cold storage, 

 and is extremely productive. Its excellent appearance 

 causes it to bring highest prices. Hale Type Shippers Late 

 Red is the best of the many strains of this fine variety. 

 Be sure vou are getting the best and plant GENUINE 

 HALE TYPE SHIPPERS LATE RED from Bountiful 

 Ridge this year.
