HARRISON'S NURSERIES, BERLIN, MD. 28 



Early Hichigan — One of the earliest freestone, white flesh varieties. A pro- 

 fitable market sort much like Lewis. Has given great satisfaction in the west 

 ern section of the country. Hardy and prolific. 



Hale's Early — An excellent peach when it succeeds, but unfortunately it is 

 so" liable to rot before and at time of ripening that it is not advisable to plant in 

 some places on that account; it does, however, succeed well in some places and 

 mostly in elevated lands toward and among the mountains and it should have 

 a place in the orchards. July. 



Kalamazoo — Large, golden yellow, with crimson cheek, flesh thick yellow, 

 superb quality, small pit. Strong grower, early bearer, hardy and productive. 

 Between Early and Late Crawford. 



Lemon Free — It is almost lemon shape, being longer than broad, color a pale 

 lemon when ripe, of large size, excellent quality, sweet and rich, exceedingly 

 productive, a sure bearer. 



Lewis — Vigorous grower, medium size, white with crimson cheek. One of 

 the earliest freestones. 



Lorentz— A seedling discovered in Marshall county, W. Va., and has never 

 been known to fail a crop, even in most unfavorable seasons. It bears crops 

 when others fail entire y. It is usually large of superior flavor, freestone, yel- 

 low flesh and handsome appearance. Has been a surprise to all who have seen 

 it. Season of ripening after Smock. 



Levy's Late (Henrietta) — Fruit large, roundish, skin deep yellow, a shade 

 of rich brownish red in the sun, flesh deep yellow, rather firm, juicy, half melt- 

 ing, sweet, very good, and a valuable variety, clingstone. First to last of Oct. 

 ^^ Moore's Favorite — A handsome large peach, white with blush to the sun, 

 similar to Old Mixon but a few days later; flesh white, tender and juicy, very 

 desirable. Freestone. August. 



flclntosh Peach — Endorsed by 12 eminent nurserymen. A valuable new 

 seedling peach originated on our fruit farms two miies south of Griffin, Ga. 

 Peach of large size, creamy white flesh highly colored, nearly freestone, ripens 

 to the stone, of good quality, ripens just after Triumph, this season, 1896, from 

 June 20th to July 1st. The original tree bore first crop of fruit in 1893; fruit was 

 large and highly colored. Last season, 1895 the tree and top grafts budded in 

 1893 were full of fruit, which did not rot, while other varieties rotted badly; rip- 

 ened July 10th. This year the tree had on a full crop of fine fruit, only medium 

 in size on account of drouth. The tree is a strong grower, heavy bearer, trees 

 require thinning fruit. It is the best peach that ripens between Triumph and 

 Elberta, and far superior in size, quality and shipping to Mt. Rose, Early Rivers, 

 Tileston, Hale's Early, Huster No. 16, Foster Lady Ingold, which ripens between 

 Triumph and Elberta — Originator. 



Morris White — Rather large, skin creamy white tinged with red in the sun, 

 flesh slightly firm, white to the stone, melting and juicy, with an excellent fla- 

 vor. Tree vigorous and bears fair crops. One of the very best for preserving on 

 account of its entire absence of red at the stone. Middle of August. 



New Prolific — Fruit large, golden yellow with rich red cheek, flavor unsur- 

 passed. Tree very hard and exceedingly productive. Bears fruit in large clus- 

 ters. September. 



Old Mixon Cling — Large yellowish white, dotted with red on a red cheek; 

 flesh pale white; very melting and juicy, with an exceedingly rich luscious fla- 

 vor. One of the most desirable clingstone peaches. Middle of August. 



Salway- A large, late yellow freestone, of English origin, handsomely 

 mottled with a brownish red cheek: flesh deep yellow: juicy, melting, rich, 

 very productive; a variety growing more and more in favor with orchardists. 

 Ripens after Smock Free 



Smock— Fruit medium to large, skin light orange yellow, mottled with 

 red; some specimens dry others moderately juicy, but all rich. Excellent as a 

 late market sort. 



Walker Variegated Free— A fine white peach ripening after Smock with a 

 beautiful red side: flesh white, rich and sweet. One of the very best of its sea 

 son,ripening in September. A most excellent variety for canners.
