\ SULLIVAN'S EARLY ELBERTA <io) 



A GREAT SUCCESS WHEREVER PLANTED 



Leads The Early Elberta Season In 



All Sections. 



It is proving- to be well adapted to the entire Central 

 peach growing area as well as Southern peach states. 



The varietv found as a bud sport in the orchard of Mr. 

 J. P. Sullivan at Zebulon, Ga. The tree and fruit charac- 

 teristics were found to be identical with Elberta. Sullivan's 

 Early Elberta is being planted extensively throughout Geor- 

 gia and adjoining states. Our trees are propagated from 

 the original strain. 



AYe have fruited Sullivan's Early Elberta now for several 

 years in our test orchard and are more impressed with it 

 each year. It ripens ahead cf the regular Early Elberta 

 and Belle of Georgia; it averages large in size, extra fine 

 quality and shows good shipping ability. We have long 

 needed a good commercial peach to fill this ripening time. 

 Sullivan's Early Elberta has real possibilities and we recom- 

 mend it highly.

REDSKIN <i2) 



A New Introduction by University of Maryland Experi- 

 mental Station (Bred and Tested as Md. 1-15). 



The Redskin peach is a product of the Maryland Univer- 

 sity Experiment Station and is the result of a cross between 

 Hale and Elberta. It ripens slightly ahead or with Elberta. 

 The tree is vigorous, fast growing and productive. Wood 

 is hardy and the buds survived the low winter temperatures 

 of 1942-43 along with the hardiest varieties indicating that 

 is it very bud hardy. The fruit of the Redskin is round, 

 yellow flesh with little or no color near the pit. It is a com- 

 plete freestone, flrm flesh of excellent shipping quality, well 

 colored with a deep red blush covering the fruit even when 

 ripening under shady conditions. In taste, it is aromatic, 

 vinous and sweet. Due to the firmness, it is rated high for 

 canning. Fruit develops good size even with heavy load on 

 tree. This new variety is recommended for trial for com- 

 mercial and nearby markets. We were fortunate to have 

 this variety in our testing block for several years and while 

 the variety was released during fall of 1944" we believe we" 

 are the first nursery to offer the trees of Redskin for general 

 planting. 



^ ELBERTA d^a) 



THE PEACH WITH A PEDIGREE 



The World's Greatest Moneymaking Peach. 



Plant Bountiful Ridge True Strain Elberta for greater 

 profits and consumer satisfaction. 



Without question, the greatest commercial peach ever in- 

 troduced. It has proven its ability to adapt itself to varied 

 climatic and soil conditions throughout the U.S. and Canada, 

 whether the climate is hot or cold, whether the soil is light 

 sandy or heavy clay, Elberta can be depended on to give 

 you fine results. There is no prettier peach when grown un- 

 der ideal conditions. 



The tree is hardy, disease resistant, very thrifty and very 

 productive under most conditions. The fruit is large to 

 very large, a freestone, skin of deep golden yellow and 

 highly colored. The skin is tough and the flesh, while ten- 

 der and juicv. is of such texture that the ELBERTA IS 

 FAMOUS FOR ITS ABILITY TO CARRY TO DISTANT 

 MARKETS. The quality is classed as good, and the slight 

 bitter flavor is preferred by many. It is estimated that 50% 

 of all peaches planted are Elberta. As improved types and 

 varieties are introduced this ratio is lower but after all is 

 said, ELBERTA STILL REMAINS THE WORLD'S LEAD- 

 ING COMMERCIAL PEACH. We are propagating our El- 

 berta trees from selected orchards of great bearing records 

 and to the old original type Elberta. 



NOTE: ELBERTA — Trees available on Nematode Resistant 

 Root Stock. S .10 extra per tree. See Page 20. 



IW WATP (121)) -^- description will hardly do jus- 

 • **• Al**J-"iJ tiee to this fine variety. In size 



it is one-third to one-half larger than the Elberta and is 

 more highly colored. The skin is deep crimson, smooth, 

 tight, and almost without fuzz. Flesh is golden yellow, 

 firm and has a most delicious flavor. The pit separates 

 easily from the flesh. It is exceptionally valuable as a com- 

 mercial peach, owing to its unusual keeping qualities. Will 

 ship nearly as well as an apple. Fruit ripens a few days 

 before and with the Elberta but it will hang on the tree 

 longer. Your planting is incomplete without it. Note — The 

 J. H. Hale does not have an entirely perfect bloom, and to 

 get the best results it should be planted with some other 

 variety.

 sistant Root Stock. § .10 extra per tree. See Page 20.
