HOLDREN'S EARLY RED (1058) Plant Patent No. 

 3558. An extra fme, fire-red summer apple originated by 

 Robert E. Holdren, Little Hocking, Ohio. The new apple's 

 parents are seedlings of Rome Beauty and Wealthy. The 

 fruits are round, somewhat compressed, fully colored, and 

 resemble Rome Beauty in shape. The bright red color is 

 attractively striped. Shelf life is exceptionally long for such 

 an early apple. Cold storage life is good, too. 



The fruits, which ripen about August 5 in the Marietta, 

 Ohio area, are borne annually on vigorous and hardy trees. 

 Flesh is firm, white, good textured, with excellent quality. 



Trees available for 1975-76 on M.M. 106 rootstock, 500 

 higher than regular varieties. 



PRISCILLA (1063) New highly colored variety ripen- 

 ing about one week before Jonathan, which is resistant to 

 apple scab, fire blight, powdery mildew. High resistance to 

 disease will eliminate need for up to one-half of the normal 

 sprays. A dream for ecologists and homeowners. Flavor is 

 good, with crisp, medium-grained texture. A perfect pol- 

 linator for Prima, another highly disease-resistant variety. 

 Trees are $1.00 more than regular varieties on standard on 

 controlled size roots.
