BRACKET! (13b) Extend your Elberta season with 

 this fine peach whose popularity is increasing. Brackett 

 ripens about five days after Elberta, and its beautiful, 

 large, orange-yellow fruits tinged with carmine bring 

 high market prices. Fruits have deep yellow flesh that 

 is much hghter in flavor than Elberta. Brackett sizes 

 well under heavy crops, ships well, is freestone, and 

 an excellent peach in most areas extending from 

 Mississippi northward. 



GEMMERS LATE ELBERTA (U) An extra large, 

 beautifully colored peach with high quahty and fine 

 shipping ability that follows Elberta by about 10 days. 

 Fruits of Gemmers are larger than Elberta, more highly 

 colored, and somewhat more round. Its good, tough 

 skin is nearly covered with a brilliant red color. Flesh 

 IS firm and slightlj' tinged with red around the pit. 

 Trees are vigorous, productive, and long hved. Many 

 growers have used Gemmers Late Elberta as an ex- 

 cellent substitute for Rio-Oso-Gem. Gemmers brings 

 high prices, high yields, and stores well. 



RIO-OSO-GEM (14a) A widely grown, beautiful, 

 Hale type peach that ripens 7 to 10 days after Elberta. 

 It is large sized, with brilliant red color and light pubes- 

 cence. The flesh is firm and fine textured, with ex- 

 cellent flavor. Rio-Oso-Gem is best known as a highly 

 profitable fresh market peach, but it is equally good as 

 a canning and freezing variety. Trees are not very 

 vigorous, but set good crops each year. 



SO GOOD (14b) A new yellow freestone from 

 Maryland ripening about with Rio-Oso-Gem. Fruits are 

 large, highly colored, and most nearly resemble Red- 

 skin. It crops annually, with good yields. Trees are 

 vigorous and healthy, more upright than Redskin. So 

 Good should have a place in your plantings. 



N.J. 162 (14c) A verj^ attractive, large, firm, 3'el- 

 low-fleshed peach ripening a week to 10 days after 

 Elberta. The blossoms do not produce viable pollen 

 and, therefore, adequate provision should be made for 

 cross polhnation. 



LIZZIE (15) An old variety with a proud history of 

 grower success in most central and eastern peach areas. 

 Lizzie is a distinct Elberta type which has size, color, 

 firmness, and high quahty. It is a freestone with fine- 

 textured, yellow flesh. It ripens 12 to 16 days after 

 Elberta, with handsome red color over a deep yellow 

 ground color. Fruits are good for shipping, local 

 markets, and processing. Trees are vigorous, hardy, 

 hea\^ and annual bearers. Many growers consider it the 

 best of our very late peaches. 



MONROE (15a) A new late season yellow freestone 

 from Virginia. Monroe ripens about 6 days after Rio- 

 Oso-Gem in a period for which no good peach is avail- 

 able. The fruits are above average in size, have bright 

 red color and are very firm. The flesh has good texture, 

 and the quality and flavor are superior to Rio-Oso- 

 Gem. Trees of Monroe produce only a moderate set of 

 buds that have .shown above average tolerance to spring 

 frost. However, the trees are reliable producers of large, 

 handsome fruits. We suggest trial plantings of Monroe 

 in every peach section. 



AUTUMN N.J. 145 (16) A large, yellow free- 

 stone that ripens just after Lizzie. Fruit colors a good 

 yellow with a fine red blush on one cheek. The tree is 

 very vigorous and should be planted on well-drained 

 p^ach soil. Autumn is just the peach for the grower 

 who wishes good size, high quahtj% very late fruit for 

 roadstand or nearby markets. In recent years. Autumn 

 has been stored in cold storage well into the fall.
