WASHINGTON (6b) A fine new peach from Virginia 
that has outstanding qualities of color, size, flavor, firm- 
ness of flesh, and fine texture. The buds are extremely 
resistant to injury from spring frosts. It ripens about 
three days after Triogem and just before Sunhigh. Trees 
are vigorous and productive. Buds have excellent pollen 
and are self -fertile. Washington will do well from 
southern Virginia northward wherever spring frosts are 
troublesome. Use Washington with Madison and Jeffer- 
son for season-long coverage of frost-resistant peaches. 
COLORA (6c) An outstanding, hardy, early, yellow 
freestone peach with high color, superb quality, size, 
and hardiness. Colora is our own introduction of a 
frost-resistant peach. Trees have withstood temperatures 
during past winters of about 17 degrees below zero, 
when most other varieties were wiped out by these low 
temperatures. The peach is an attractive yellow free- 
stone ripening just after Golden Jubilee. 
NEWDAY N.J. 79 (6d) A large, oval, yellow- 
fleshed peach which ripens a few days after Triogem. 
The tree is more vigorous and produces larger fruit 
than Triogem. The fruit is showy, firm in texture, and 
hangs well to the tree. 
SUNHIGH — N.J. 82 (7) A large, bright red, 
smooth peach which colors well before it ripens and 
softens slowly, making it a good commercial peach. 
Flesh inclines to adhere to the pit when hard ripe, 
but is generally freestone. Tree is spreading in growth, 
and dormant buds are hardy. Seems to do best in hilly 
sections and requires thorough summer spraying. 
SOUTHLAND (7a) Yellow-fleshed variety ripening in 
Sunhigh season. Fruit is a freestone, medium to large 
size, round, and has little fuzz. Color is attractive, wuth 
a light red blush covering about half the peach at 
shipping stage. Flesh is yellow, firm, slow softening, 
medium textured, good flavor. Trees are vigorous and 
productive, blossoms large, self-fertile. 
SUMMERQUEEN— N.J. 157 (7 b) A high quality 
large, attractive, firm, yellow-fleshed peach ripening 
about with Sunhigh. Less susceptible to bacterial spot 
than Sunhigh. Has large, showy, imperfect blossoms 
which need pollination. Sets good crop with proper 
cross-pollination and is recommended to replace Sun- 
high where bacterial spot is a problem.

Harrah, Oklahoma 
In December, 1962, we purchased several hundred fruit 
trees from Bountiful Ridge Nurseries. 800 of them were 
peaches budded on nemat ode-resistant rootstock con- 
sisting of many varieties. We have 250 trees each of 
Dawne and Redwin and the growth and yields are 
almost miraculous. Redwin picked 88 busheh, Dawne 
and Sunshine picked more than 100 bushels in this, their 
third summer. 
Our trees are measuring from 10 to H-ft. spread. We 
can not say enough for the vigor, vitality, and growth 
of Bountiful Ridge Nurseries' trees. With reasonable 
care, one can have a wonderful orchard.
