OUB TREES ARE AMERICA'S NO. 1 VALUE 



SHIPPERS LATE RED <"» 



A Favorite Wherever Planted. 

 Hard To Equal As A Large, Productive, Hand- 

 some Peach To Follow Elberta. 



A large, very high colored, attractive red, yellow 

 fleshed freestone and good quality peach, of distinct 

 Hale type. Ripens just after Elberta and J. H. Hale. 

 A good shipping peach, extremely productive. Very 

 hardy and its beauty and size enables it to bring top 

 prices on the markets. This splendid variety should be 

 planted more extensively as we know of no variety we 

 can recommened more highly for a peach to follow the 

 Elberta. 



Much confusion exists regarding the various strains 

 of this variety. We are growing the true type as de- 

 termined by comparisons with fruit in II. S. D. A. test 

 orchards, which is known as the Hale type. 



GAGE ELBERTA <"") 



A Disease Resistant Bud Sport of The Famous 

 Elberta Peach, Wliich We Ca'n Kecommead Highly. 



Recommended for resistance to bacterium pruni. 

 The tree grows thrifty as the Elberta and looks much 

 like the old time Elberta. Gage Elberta blooms from 

 two to four days after Elberta and ai)parentiy iias a 

 very strong blossom setting a crop of fruit under un- 

 favorable conditions. The fruit is so near like the Elber- 

 ta that only an expert can distinguish the difference. It 

 ripens two to three days later than Elberta. 



This variety is proving well adapted to Southern con- 

 ditions in the trial planting at Columbia and Ciemson, 

 South Carolina and is to be preferred over the Elberta 

 in many respects. 



THE BRACKETT PEACH <i4> 



PROVING A GREAT COMMERCIAL PEACH 



This is a comparatively new variety in some sections, 

 but has been tried and proven one of the most profit- 

 able peaches in the South and Central areas. Its sea- 

 son is about five days after Elberta, with a beautiful- 

 orange-yellow skin tinged with carmine. Flesh is a 

 deep yellow and much higher flavored than Elberta. 

 This peach sizes up well under heavy crops and is 

 equal to Elberta as a shipper. A perfect freestone 

 and a real peacn. 



MEDIUM LATE VARIETIES 



Introduced by us in 1925, 

 originating on Hope Farm, 

 Bergen County, New Jersey, home of the late Mr. Col- 

 lingwood, editor of Rural New Yorker, farm paper. A 

 large, white-fleshed freestone peach of superior quality. 

 Follows Elberta about five days in ripening. Partially 

 self-fertile. Extremely hardy in bud. Proving a fav- 

 orite and filling a need for a good white peach to fol- 

 low Belle of Georgia. 



Gemmers Late Elberta (isa) 



Beautiful color, large size, excellent quality, fine 

 shipping and keeping ability combine in GEM- 

 MERS LATE ELBERTA to make it one of the 

 most promising varieties wc have ever observed 

 to follow the El ;erta season. 



Originating in the orchards of j\Ir. Conrad Genimer, 

 Sussex, N. J., we have observed this peach for several 

 years and it seems superior in appearance, size, (luality 

 and shipping ability to any other peach we now have 



HOPE FARM <i5) 



Photograph shows basket of Erly-Red-Fre Peaches 

 packed 2%" up on the farm of Morris April Bros., 

 Bridgeton, N. J. Mr. April reports "The Erly-Red-Fre" 

 was the only variety which came thru 1942-43 winter's 

 freeze and set a crop. The fruit sold at prices from 

 $3.00 to $3.50 per Vz bushel basket. 



Reports such as this attest the success of Erly-Red- 

 Fre in all sections of the country. 



GEM3IERS I.ATE ELBERTA (Continued) 



to follow Elberta. It is a typical Elberta in fruit and 

 tree characteristics. It ripens 8 to 12 days after El- 

 berta, just following Shippers Late Red and before 

 Lizzie and Salberta. There is a place liere for a good 

 Elberta type peach and we believe Gemmers Late El- 

 berta will fill it. N. J. Experiment Station has grown 

 Gemmer.s for several years and seem favorably impress- 

 ed with its performance at New Brunswick. Fruits are 

 very uniform, large, well covered witli a brilliant red 

 on an attractive golden yellow, almost fuzzless, having 

 a smooth tough skin. Flesh very firm, being slightly 

 tinged with red about the pit but red does not extend 

 into the golden yellow flesh. Originating at Sussex, N. 

 J., well up in the Mountains where many varieties of 

 l)eaches fail to stand their climatic conditions should 

 recommend GEMMERS as a hardy variety both in tree 

 and bud. WE RECOMMEND "GEMMERS LATE EL- 

 BERTA" FOR TRIAL IN ALL PEACH SECTIONS 

 WHERE YOU WISH TO CONTINUE THE ELBERTA 

 SEASON WITH A REAL PEACH.

QUALITY COMBINE TO MAKE THIS PEACH A 



FAVORITE TO FOLLOAV GEMMERS LATE ELBERTA 



The origin of this peach has not been fully determin- 

 ed, yet it has been very successfully grown by commer- 

 cial orchardists of NeAv .lersey, Connecticut and in sev- 

 eral southern states. It is a distinct Elberta type 

 peach, very large, freestone, having a fine yellow flesh 

 and the peach ripens slowly after being taken off the 

 tree. It ripens from 12 to 16 days after Elberta, colors 

 well with a handsome red over a deep yellow undertone. 

 The tree is thrifty, hardy, heavy bearer of regular 

 crops. Some growers consider it 'the best of our i)re- 

 sent list of real late peaches.
