NEW VARIETIES. 



June-budded trees by mail, if desired, at each and dozen rates. 



CONNECTICUT. TRIUMPH. 



(reduced oxe-half). 

 Exceptionally hardy in fruit bud. and so valuable 

 otherwise as to place it in the foremost rank of hardy 

 Peaches. In northern sections of the country where a 

 very low temperature often quickly follows a few 

 warm days in winter or early spring it is very desir- 

 able to possess a variety of more than usual hardiness 

 for regular yearly bearing. The ordinary leading 

 standard varieties cannot be depended upon in such 

 sections for regular crops. In the Connecticut we have 

 a tree that is a vigorous grower and a heavy, annual 

 bearer, with fruit buds so hardy that it never fails to 

 produce a crop, even in New England. The fruit itself 

 is all that can be desired, large and handsome, golden 

 yellow with red cheek, rich and fine in quality with a 

 superior, high flavor, and to add yet more to its great 

 value, it ripens early — before Crawford's Earlv. 1st

BOKARA (No. 3). 



Remarkable for its extreme hardiness having endured 

 a temperature of 28 degrees below zero without injury. 

 It is of Asiatic origin but has been fruited for several 

 years, especially in Iowa where it ripens about the 

 middle of August. The fruit is large, specimens having 

 measured seven inches in circumference; yellow with 

 red cheek, tough skin, flesh firm and of fine quality; a 

 perfect freestone. It is a splendid keeper. 1st c. ea..

A great improvement upon Alexander, with v> hich 

 it ripens, blooms late, has large flowers, and is a sure 

 and abundant bearer, makes a very strong growth, and 

 comes into bearing early. The fruit is large, with very 

 small pit, yellow with mottled crimson cheek, very 

 handsome; flesh yellow and ripens evenly to the stone, 

 firin in texture and exceedingly fine in quality, and is 

 a perfect freestone. Such a variety is valuable in the 

 highest degree for market, and every garden should 

 contain a few trees of it for its home supply of fine, 

 large, earlv peaches. 1st c, ea., 12c; 3 for 30c; doz.,

SNEED. 



Of the Chinese Cling family and the earliest Peach 

 known. The tree possesses the hardiness and vigor of 

 its class and is a productive bearer. Fruit medium to 

 large, inclining to oval, rich creamy white with bright 

 crimson blush, flesh firm, sweet, fine quality; ripens 

 evenly to the pit and does not rot. A very "desirable 

 Peach and valuable on account of its extreme earliness 

 for either the home garden or for market. 1st c, ea.,

YENSHI HARDY. 



Originally from northwestern China and of ironclad 

 hardiness. "The fruit is large and handsome, yell >w, 

 excellent in quality, and a perfect freestone, "it is a 

 vigorous grower and often bears the second year from 

 the bud. Its perfect hardiness has been proved by its 

 bearing large crops in both Illinois and Iowa after pass- 

 ing through the most severe winters. Those who are 

 seeking a sure bearing, very early peach of unusual 

 hardiness should not fail to "plant "the Yenshi. 1st c,

GREENSBORO. 



Ripens earlier than Alexander and double its size. It 

 is a great bearer, the tree being annually loaded with 

 fruit, which is large, yellowish- white beautifully color- 

 ed with crimson cheek; flesh white, very juicy "and of 

 fine quality; skin thin and rubs off easily. It differs 

 also from most early peaches in being entirely free 

 from rot. It is a great surprise to behold peaches of 

 such size ripening before Alexander in such abundance 

 and in qualitv among the best. 1st c ea.. 15c: 3 for
