Harrisons' "Bud Strains" 



Some sixty years ago, and almost every year 

 sirtce, Harrisons' hove planted orchards, not 

 alone for fruit but principally to secure the type 

 of parent fruit tree that was choracteristic of o 

 "variety" dominant in bearing qualities coupled 

 with health, vigor and ability to withstand 

 chongeable climotic conditions. This type of tree 

 became the parent supplying the budding stocks 

 for future orchords in America and true-to-nome 

 varieties were assured. 



TRUE TO NAME 



CORONET. Most popular very early ripening peach, CORONET — newest variety cross be- 

 tween Hole Haven and Dixigem. Ripens 3 days earlier than Dixigem and Jerseyland also 

 week ahead of Redhoven. About three-quarters of peach, bright, attractive red blush over 

 good yellow background color. Flesh is yellow, firm, smooth texture, good flavor, medium 

 size, nearly Freestone. Introduced by U. S. Dept. of Agriculture as the ideal variety to 

 plant in future orchards in place of Dixigem. 



REDCAP. Very new popular variety. Just introduced by U. S. Dept. of Agriculture. Cross 

 between Southland and Dixired. Ripens one or two days earlier than Dixired, which it 

 resembles. Attractive bright red blush covering three-fourths of medium sized, clingstone 

 peach. Flesh is yellow, firm with good flavor. Recommend planting Redcap in place of 

 Dixired. 



CARDINAL. New variety, on offspring of Hale Haven, which ripens four days ahead of 

 Dixired and week earlier than Red Bird, Attractive red blush over good yellow ground 

 color, with smooth skin. Flesh is yellow, firm, clingstone, medium textured and good flavor. 

 About size of Dixired, also in color, appearance and firmness. New variety just introduced 

 by U. S. Dept of Agriculture with surprising popularity in the South. 



HILAND. New variety cross between Southland, Hiley and Hale Haven. Ripens two days 



earlier than Cardinal, also five days ahead of Dixired, being eighteen days earlier than 



Red Haven. Attractively red colored, flesh is yellow, fairly firm, clingstone, medium size, 

 good flavor. Introduced by U. S. Dept. of Agriculture.

»4 TULIP. Very early. New variety originated by Missouri Fruit Experiment Station. Ripens at 

 same time as Dixired and Redcap being six weeks earlier than Elberto. Medium to large 

 size nearly round with good red color even before picking time, flesh, yellow, firm, fine 

 texture, excellent flavor, free-stone. Stands shipping well. 



\ SHINN'S DELICIOUS. A true mutation, being very early ripening budsport strain of Burbank 

 July Elberto, U. S. Plant Patent #15, discovered by Mr. C. T. Shinn and Mr. L. S. Smith in 

 their orchard near Russellville, Arkansas. Identical in large size, beautiful red color with 

 handsome golden yellow background color, yellow flesh, freestone and superior flavor as 

 its parent, however, its most appealing characteristic is that it ripens three weeks sooner, 

 between Red Bird and Red Haven, making it about five weeks earlier ripening than 

 Elberto. Many growers say it is better than Storking Delicious peach U. S. plant patent #806.
