APPLE Tree 



Eai 



RICHARED DELICIOUS (1036) Superb quality, 

 beautiful bright red color without stripe, and excellent 

 shape. Trees are hardy, vigorous, and produce large 

 annual crops. Fruits of Richared are large, very handsome, 

 and good. They ripen all over the tree weeks earlier than 

 regular ])elicious. Richared is your best bet for elevations 

 over 100 feet. An excellent storage apple, too. 



DOUBLE RED DELICIOUS (1037) A sport of De- 

 licious that ripens with a stripe. It is your best bet for an 

 early coloring Delicious at low elevations. When planted 

 in areas over 100 feet, it tends to get too dark and is not 

 as handsome as Richared. It bears young and produces 

 large crops of fine, beautiful Delicious apples. \'ery similar 

 to Starking. 



WAYNE-SPUR RED DELICIOUS (1038) A spur- 

 type Red Delicious from ^'irginia. Fruit is produced on 

 spurs along scaffold limbs throughout the tree. Fruits are 

 typical of Red Delicious in shape, are predominantly 

 blushed red and of good size. Wayne-Spur colcjrs earlier 

 than Double Red Delicious, but ripens about the same 

 time. Trees are true semi-dwarf and bear ample crops 

 early in life. Storage life and firmness is better than 

 Double Red Delicious. 



YELLOW DELICIOUS (1032) This apple is famous 

 for its unique quality, embracing a combination of flavors 

 which is hard to equal. This, combined with the fine, 

 firm-textured flesh of the apple and the beautiful golden 

 yellow skin, at once attracts the eye of the consuming 

 public. The tree, while not a large growing type, is thrifty 

 and extremely productive, coming into fruiting and giving 

 an abundant crop while very young. An excellent pol- 

 linator. 



EARLY RED STAYMAN (Neipling's) (i04i) Colors 



100% all over the apple, from 10 to 20 days before 

 the regular Stayman. Growers can pick the entire crop at 

 one picking, if desired, and avoid losses. Cold storage tests 

 show it will keep through to following May and come out 

 with less scald, more flavor and more snap than any other 

 type Stayman. 



HOLLY (1075) A new high quality apple from Wooster, 

 Ohio. Looks and tastes much like Delicious, but without 

 the prominent points. Color is deep cherry-red, making a 

 very attractive pack. Ripens a week later than Delicious 

 and will help to extend the picking season. Stores well and 

 peak flavor is reached in late January. Trees come into 

 production earlier than Delicious. 



SPIJON (1072) A cross of Red Spy and Monroe 

 which produces large, bright crimson-red fruits suitable 

 for fresh or processor markets. Bears annually, resists 

 bitter pit, and ripens with Northern Spy. 



NORTHERN SPY (1042) Large, roundish conical, 

 often flattened, slightly ribbed; handsomely striped with 

 red. Flavor rich, aromatic, mild sub-acid, fine. Keeps 

 through winter and late into spring. Trees available on 

 semi-dwarf rootstocks only. 



COLOR A RED YORK (1044) Earlier coloring, ear- 

 lier picking, greater profits. The tree of Colora Red York 

 has the same rugged characteristics as the old York Im- 

 perial, but will color 100% over the entire tree under most 

 conditions. Pick from one to two weeks earlier than 

 regular York, at one time if desired. 



MELROSE (1046) A new late-keeping winter apple 

 that is a cross of Jonathan and Delicious. Blooms later 

 than either parent. Fruits ripen just before Stayman, keep 

 well in cold storage until April and have proven free of 

 Jonathan spot. Fruits are well covered with an attractive 

 carmine and have a live yellow undertone. Larger fruits 

 than Jonathan, with excellent cooking and dessert quality. 

 Bears moderately young, is upright, spreading with good 

 crotch angles and develops to a reasonably large size. 



DOUBLE RED STAYMAN— 201 Type (i047) One 



of the newer introductions which has found favor 

 with some growers. Trees and fruit characteristics 

 similar to Blaxtayman except that it has a more brilliant 

 color which lays on earlier and does not get the dark 

 shade often found in some Stayman types. 



RUBY (1048) Ruby is brilliant over-all carmine-red. 

 The tree resembles Rome in growth, bears early and pro- 

 duces annually. Blooms about with Gallia and just after 

 Delicious. Picking date is about with Rome. The flavor 

 is good — somewhat juicy, pleasingly mild. Cooking seems 

 to improve the flavor. Fruits hold well in storage into 

 April and May ; less susceptible to scald than Rome Beauty. 



KING LUSCIOUS (1049) U. S. Plant Patent No. 1994. 

 A very large, highly colored apple with good keeping, 

 eating, and cooking qualities. The skin is a deep red with 

 a beautiful bloom. The flesh is pure white, with excellent 

 flavor. Season of ripening is with Rome Beauty and 

 Stayman, although it may be picked sooner for cooking 

 purposes. The tree is a young and annual bearer, blooming 

 a week after Rome Beauty to make it almost completely 

 frost-proof. 



The tree is semi-dwarf in habit, sets its scaffold branches 

 well, and needs little pruning. Both tree and fruit are 

 resistant to apple scab. 



WINTER BANANA (IO50) Vigorous grower; early 

 bearer. Fruit medium to large, smooth and handsome 

 golden yellow, usually shaded with red blush. Flesh fine 

 grained, rich sub-acid, aromatic; highest quality. 



GALLIA BEAUTY— Red Rome (1051) A typical 

 Rome type tree, thrifty, hardy, and productive. Fruits 

 color a brilliant bright red without stripe, of higher quality 

 than regular Rome Beauty, keep well in storage. The 

 Gallia Beauty will size equal to the regular Rome. 



CHESAPEAKE (1053) A late-keeping apple with out- 

 standing quality, developed by Frank Browning of 

 Wallingford, Ky. Chesapeake is a chance seedling of 

 Stayman and Rome. It is a large, red apple that ripens 

 with Rome. Keeps well into the winter, even in common 

 storage. Its good flavor resembles that of Stayman and is 

 mildly sub-acid. Fruits retain their juices well throughout 

 storage and are excellent for fresh or culinary purposes. 



Trees of Chesapeake are vigorous, productive, and bear 

 at an early age. Blooms appear with those of Rome and 

 are hardy. Spring frosts are not a problem. Trees are 

 available on Standard and E.M. VII rootstocks. 



BOUNTIFUL IMPROVED WINESAP (1055) A se- 

 lection of Winesap with beautiful color, high quality, good 

 keeping ability. The fruit has every characteristic of the 

 Old \'irginia Winesap in shape, color, quality, and growth 

 habits. The tree is typical Winesap.
