 with a bright red blush over a golden yellow ground 

 color when mature. The flesh is yellow, firm and of

 fleshed peach ripening earlier than Sunhaven. It is a 

 seedling variety with good color, fine flavor, and good 

 size. Trees are vigorous and healthy. Princess Anne was 

 found in the local area and should do well in most all peach 

 sections.

 ity, it is the best early white peach known. No other early 

 peach has been as profitable and universally adaptable.

 cases without thinning. Color is never a problem; the 

 fruits turn red at least on one side well before harvest 

 date. Quality is exceptionally good. Erly-Red-Fre has

 parent. The flesh is a clear yellow, is melting and with good

 freestone at picking time. Size is equal to, or larger than, 

 Redhaven on trees of comparable age.

 that the buds and wood are above average in hardiness 

 and are most tolerant of spring frost.

 Somerset are vigorous and sturdy growers that produce 

 annually heavy crops.
