^BRILLIANT RED DELICIOUS 

 Newest "Red Bud Sport" 



APPLE TREES 



for the APPLE INDUSTRY 



HARRISONS' were pioneers in selecting "Red 

 Bud Sport" strains of apples — the late Senator 

 Orlando Harrison started this idea 60 years 

 ago, thus causing unprecedented discussion 

 among commercial fruit growers and pro- 

 fessional horticulturists. 



The apples start taking on 

 red color during early August 

 or the middle of August, de- 

 pending on the section of 

 United States that the tree 

 will be planted. 



The solid red coloring at 

 maturity is excellent and at- 

 tractive, being a big im- 

 provement over the Richared, 

 which it resembles in size and 

 shape. 



Brilliant red fruit with ex- 

 cellent flavor. A beautiful 

 new apple. Similar to Royal 

 Red Delicious. A good grow- 

 ing tree, 25? extra per tree. 



f 4 \b RED SUMMER RAMBO 



BIG YIELD STRAIN 



A new "Red Bud Sport" strain which has very early red coloring 

 during July and develops into a solid red colored apple. Extra large size 

 fruits with a rich mild flavor. A tremendous bearer. 



A customer in Virginia picked 1,184 bushels per acre. 



A very profitable and excellent summer apple. Harrisons' strain, 

 being this new solid red color sport, is so superior in appearance to any 

 of its kin that in the future its culture alone should be recommended. 

 Large, very vigorous growing hardy trees. 



7" SPARTAN 



A very attractive Mcintosh type apple maturing about one week 

 later. Filmer flesh and has excellent dessert quality. Keeps in storage 

 several weeks longer. 



Spartan is a cross between Mcintosh and Albermarle Pippin (Yellow 

 Newtown). Tree is a good grower and produces bumper crops. 



Apple growers in British Columbia, Canada, consider Spartan as one 

 of the finest apples grown and eventually expect Spartan to replace 

 Mcintosh. 



^JERSEYRED (N.J. I) 



Late attractive re^apple producing extra large fruits. Very firm and 

 stores exceptionally well, as does Red Rome Beauty. A cross between 

 Gallia Beauty and White Winter Pearmain. One year trees available for 

 Spring 1959 planting.

^AUGUST RED DELICIOUS 

 Newest Early "Red Bud Sport" 



The red color starts to show on apples during late July or early 

 August, depending on the section of United States that the tree will be 

 planted. 



It has good full bright red color during the summer. The new variety 

 has a much better red coloring than Starking Delicious, which it resem- 

 bles in shape and size. 



Similar to Red King Delicious. A good growing tree. Fruit has excel- 

 lent flavor. 25? extra per tree. 



O REDBIRD DELICIOUS 



Newest "Spur-Type" — "Solid Red Bud Sport" 



A Marvelous Discovery For Fruit Growers 



A standard tree, but medium in size, of the popular "spur-type." This 

 "mutation" being a "red bud sport" strain. The tree is about 65% 

 to 75% of the normal full size Triple Red Delicious standard tree. The 

 purplish-pink color will begin to show around the first of August with 

 small inconspicious lenticles. Will develop into full, beautiful, hand- 

 some, solid crimson, scarlet, ruby red colored apples during late August, 

 depending on the section of the United States the tree will be planted. 

 The excessive fruit spur formation is associated with early heavy fruit- 

 ing. This "mutation" may be from Triple Red Delicious. Similar to 

 Bisbee strain of Red Delicious, also called Starkrimson. Also similar to 

 Chelan Red Delicious in coloring characteristics, karge size apples with 

 gorgeous, magnificant, attractive solid red coloring without stripes,
