Our Peach Trees Are Famous For Growth and Productiveness 



HALE HAVEN (sd) 



One of Our Finest Peaches for "Quick Freezing." 



The tree is a strong thrifty grower, resistant to common 

 peach diseases. The fruit is large, oval shaped like a well 

 grown J. H. Hale. It has a good tough skin. The flesh of 

 the peach being of such texture that it will not bruise 

 easily. A beautiful red color that attracts the buyer. A 

 flavor that is the best. 



JULY HEATH (Othelle Cling) (Se) 



A large white cling, ripening latter part of Hale Haven 

 season. A beautiful peach, strong growing tree and hardy 

 in bud. Very high in quality. We recommend this peach to 

 anyone desiring a white cling for all purposes. Sometimes 

 called July or Summer Cling. 



GOLDEN EAST (N.J. 87) m a large oval, firm, 

 melting, highly colored, yellow-fleshed peach ripening 

 about 15 days before Elberta. Usually a frestone. Does best 

 on sites south of Central New Jersey where favorable ele- 

 vations, soil and climate prevail. Tree is upright, spread- 

 ing and vigorous. Medium in hardiness. 



ECLIPSE C) A dark red, yellow-fleshed freestone 

 peach of firm texture and good flavor. Tree is very vig- 

 orous. The fruit is oval in shape, flesh fine grained and an 

 excellent shipper; hangs well to the tree and can be har- 

 \ested over a long period. 



CHAMPION (9a) \Yg restore this variety to our list 

 because of demand for a fine white peach in this season. 

 The fruit is large, quite regular, yellovvash-white mottled 

 with red on sunny side; flesh white with red at pit. Very 

 hardy. Freestone. 



SUNCREST (10) Originated by USDA, ripens about 

 10 days earlier than Elberta, is large, round, and free- 

 stone. It has light pubescence and is covered over % with 

 a bright red blush over a yellow ground color. The flesh 

 is yellow, firm enough for distant shipment, and of good 

 flavor. 



The trees are vigorous and productive, somewhat sus- 

 ceptible to bacterial spot in trouble areas. The blossoms 

 are large petaled and self-fertile. We believe that Suncrest 

 is worthy of trial in the eastern area.

 mg well before peach is ripe. Fruits are firm, yellow 

 fleshed, freestone of fine texture and flavor. A good ship- 

 ping peach. Its season and general characteristics are 

 such that it should have a place in most orchards.

 low-fleshed freestone ripening about a week before El- 

 berta. The skin color is a beautiful crimson red which re-

BLAKE (lOe) 



Why Plant Bountiful Ridge Peach Trees 



/. Only selected bud stock of known parentage used in 

 propagation. 



2. Our root stocks are the best money can buy — selected 

 for rapid growth — hardiness and disease resistance. 



3. Only soil which has been especially treated to produce 

 high food value for normal development are used to 

 grow our trees. 



4. Continuous inspection of trees from seedling to finished 

 tree, with correct spraying compounds, timing and tech- 

 nique to keep trees healthy while growing. 



5. Rigid control of varieties from cutting of budwood — 

 checking workers during budding time — correct chart- 

 ing of all varieties — more checking at digging time 

 plus further checking in storage insures true-to-name 

 trees. 



6. Constant searching for new and better varieties and 

 improved strains of old commercial fai'orites goes on 

 year after year by men trained to recognize all factors 

 which influence the selection of finer trees and varieties. 



Widely planted in New Jersey and other areas, Blake 

 seems to have grower and consumer approval. Fruits are 

 medium to large, ven,' highly colored with attractive red 

 over good yellow ground color. It is a freestone, having 

 considerable red about the pit and extending to the flesh 

 in some cases. Flesh is very firm and of excellent flavor. 

 Trees are good growers, ranks with Elberta in hardiness 

 of bud and tree. The size its bright attractive red color- 

 ing and season of ripening makes the Blake a desirable 

 peach to precede the Elberta
