RED YORKING APPLE 



U. S. Plant Patent Number 125, May 28, 1935 



Sensational New Triple Red York Imperial 



A SUPREME HORTICULTURAL ACHIEVEMENT 



The Red Yorking apple is The Utopian va- 

 riety which growers have long wished for in 

 the* York Imperial producing sections. The 

 York Imperial has been most extensively 

 planted and has gained its greatest prestige 

 in Pennsylvania. Maryland, Virginia, West 

 Virginia and Delaware and is generally con- 

 sidered in those states as the best average 

 money maker, consequently this second 

 largest commercial apple district of the Na- 

 tion has been startled and amazed as to the 

 unusual merits of the new "bud sport" variety 

 '•Red forking." 



The Glorified York Imperial 

 The Red Yorking is a "bud sport." being a 

 mutation of the famous York Imperial. This 

 "bud sport" originated on a tree, grown with 

 other York Imperial trees, in Harrisons' Nur- 

 series and later sold to !Mr. W. H. Allison, near 

 Shippensburg. Pennsylvania, for use in plant- 

 ing a large orchard about twenty-four years 

 ago. 



Earlier Coloring — More Extra Fancy Fruits 

 The "Red Yorking" is similar to its parent 

 in size and shape but its chief distinction is 

 that it has very much better red color, being 

 mostly 100 % bright red color. The Red York- 

 ing takes on high red color from three to five 

 weeks earlier in the fall than York Imperial, 

 which is a distinct advantage in selling, as 

 the earliness in season and high red color will 

 command much higher prices. 



The "Red Yorking" is a more vigorous 

 grower and a heavier producer than York Im- 

 perial. The York Imperial has been the out- 

 standing apple in certain districts for several 

 decades, but it will soon be replaced in promi- 

 nence by its off-spring, the "Red Yorking." 



Best Export Apple 

 All apples which are shipped Export up to No- 

 vember 15th of each season must be United States 

 No. 1 grade, Government inspected with Federal 

 Export Form Certificates. The Red Yorking is the 

 best export apple, due to the following important 

 features: 



(1) It starts to take on red color during early 

 August, and by the first week of September there 

 is sufficient red color for the United States No. 1 

 grade with proper maturity so that it can be safely 

 and profitably picked and shipped. 



(2) It is similar to York Imperial in size and 

 shape, but has better shipping qualities, on ac- 

 count of the higher red color than its parent. 



(3) The height of the picking season of the York 

 Imperial is during the second and third weeks of 

 October, whereas the Red Yorking is about a 

 month earlier. 



(4) It is a recognized fact that every year the 

 earliest cars in the season picked and shipped 

 bring handsome cash premiums.

'RED YORKING' 



Excellent Cold Storage Keeper 

 The Red Yorking keeps in cold storage, as well 

 as common storage, very much better than the 

 York Imnerial — this is due to the fact that the Red 

 Yorking "s skin is thicker and that it has a solid 

 cherry red color. The Red Yorking does not scald 

 in cold storage. 



Plant in Home Orchards 

 The Red Yorking is the easiest variety of 

 to grow and it is 



my 



rticuiarly adapted to the home 

 orchard. The Red Yorking does not require as 

 much attention, nor as much spraying as many 

 other varieties, in order to raise a good crop — it is 

 a prolific bearer, producing crops each year. It is 

 a wonderful variety for the home, as it is particu- 

 larly adapted for cooking and also good for eating 

 when fully ripe. 



Harrisons' Nurseries, Inc.. have over 1.750 acres 

 planted to commercial apple and peach orchards. 

 We planted an orchard of the Red Yorking last 

 year, as we have faith in this variety, therefore we 

 will plant another orchard of the Red Yorking 

 this spring, and we highly recommend you to plant 

 this new *' sport" variety in your commercial or 

 home orchard.
