MEDIUM EARLY VARIETIES 



ir own introduction of a hardy peach, introduced Spring of 1936. A new frost resistant, 

 yellow freestone peach. This peach originated in Cecil County, Maryland, as a sprout coming 

 from the root of a Brackett tree planted about 1920. It has been producing constantly since about 1925 and came 

 through many years with a full crop when the buds of Brackett on the same tree were entirly frozen out. Second 

 generation trees as well as the original branch have withstood temperatures during the past winters of about 17 

 degrees below zero, when most other varieties such as Elberta, Hiley Belle, Belle of Georgia, Early Elberta and 

 J. H. Hale were wiped out by these low temperatures. The peach is an attractive yellow, freestone, well-colored 

 and of excellent uality, ripening about 15 to 20 days before Elberta. In size, it is about the same as Elberta, being- 

 typical Elherta in shape. We believe tlie planters will find this a valuable variety for planting in cold areas. 

 T7|?"r\p"I"rp (9A) -^ produict of the Vineland Experimental Station, in Canada, proving unusually well 



V XjiLyLji 1 lU ^ ' adapted in the various peach growing sections of the United fetates. A seed- 

 ling of Elberta, resembling that variety in color and type of flesh, but is more globular in shape, more highly 

 coored, and of much finer quality. The fruit is of large size, yellow fleshed, freestone. The tree is vigorous, very 

 hardy, comes into bearing early and is very productive. The Vedette is proving very satisfactory in trial plant- 

 ings near Columbia and Clemson, South Carolina, as well as other peach growing sections of the Central and Eas- 

 tern States. The fruit is firm and a good shipper, ripening about one week after Golden Jubilee. A fine peach 

 that promises to be a real money maker for the Southern Planter as well as other sections, replacing the old Hiley 

 with a larger, better quality, yellow, freestone, productive peach. 



H AT P PTAVFM (10) a product of the South Haven Experimental Station, in Michigan, and is one of the 

 Xir^JjJ-9 Ain. V £jm ^ •' most promising new varieties of recent introduction for a peach ripening after the 

 Golden Jubilee and Vedette. It is a definite improvement over the South Haven, being more resistant to low 

 Winter temperatures, always a freestone, has a tough skin, very highly colored and well adapted to large Com- 

 mercial Plantings. The tree is vigorous, the fruit is large, globular in shape as the Hale, and resembles this 

 variety, being about two weeks earlier than the J. H. Hale and Elberta, and of extremely high quality and a good 

 shipper. We know of no peach we can recommend more highly than the Hale Haven as a Commercial Variety to 

 follow the Golden Jubilee and Vedette and to precede the Elberta season. It now has a wide distribution and is 

 proving its adaptability to most of the peach growing sections from the Caroinas Noilli 



SOUTH HAVEN doA) '^^^v^^",^!^^ 



Station and proving hardy and an excellent peach. The 

 tree is very thrifty and productive. The peach is of El- 

 berta type, ripening from 12 to 16 days before Elberta. 

 While not as good a shipper as Elberta we believe it 

 will carry satisfactory to markets within a radius of 

 700 miles. It is a freestone, yellow fleshed peach which 

 colors up well and ripens its crop over a period of about 

 ten days which makes it especially desirable for local 

 and roadstand markets. This is an excellent variety to 

 follow the Golden Jubilee and to precede the Early 

 Elberta. 



HILEY BELL (Hiley) (") t,,f:Xf.eV!/J. 



stone peach with beautiful red blush and tough skin. 

 The flesh is juicy and tender. For many years the 

 Souths' greatest early commercial peach. 



SLAPPY (Improved) ("A) wo^_^|re ^p^opa- 



strain of Slappy that we consider superior to the orgin- 

 al Slappy variety. The peach seems to average larger, 

 much higher colored, and the tree seems very vigorous, 

 otherwise it is a typical Slappy in every way. The 

 Slappy is a yellow freestone peach of very good qualitv, 

 ripening about the same time as Hiley Belle. It is 

 especially suitable for nearby markets where quality 

 and appearance count. 



VAT T ANT (IIB) A seedling of Elberta introduced 

 ' ■«^*-*""«-^ ■■■ ^ 'by Experiment Station, Vine- 

 land, Ont., Canada. A large yellow fleshed, high col- 

 ored peach, ripening 3 to 7 days after Vedette. Excel- 

 lent quality fruit, hardy tree and very productive. We 

 recommend it for trial. 



FPTTP^F (IIC) A self-pollinated seedling of 

 IIi^mrOEi V f Belle. A dark red, yellow-flesh- 

 ed freestone peach of firm texture and good flavor, ri- 

 pening with Hiley. Size equal to Hiley, tree more vig- 

 orous. Fruit oval, flesh fine grained; excellent shipper: 

 hangs to the tree well. Recommended as a variety to 

 replace Hilev.
