Brackett 
Ripens after Elberta. Orange-yellow skin, tinged with car- 
mine. Flesh is deep yellow. highly flavored. WNSize is large to very 
large. Freestone. 
Some years ago a well-known nursery firm of Georgia discovered 
a new variety of peach possessing certain points of quality and 
high fruiting capacity that made it more than usually desirable. 
Not only was this new variety tested by the discoverers, but 
trees were sent to fruit growers in other parts of the country with 
a request that the newcomer be carefully tested and accurate rec- 
ords kept of its performances. When the reports came in they 
indicated that the new peach was even better than expected, and 
the firm felt justified in introducing this new variety under the 
name of “Brackett.” 
The American Pomological Society set its stamp of approval 
on the Brackett and entered the name on the records of the 
Society. Most Northern nurserymen failed to sense the value of 
this new variety. but a thorough trial in our orchargs convinced 
us that the Brackett is worthy of general planting. 
BRACKETT A THREE-POINT WINNER—IN COLOR, 
IN SIZE, IN QUALITY 
Brackett ripens in our big commercial orchards a few days after 
Elberta. The fruit is rich yellow. with dark carmine cheek. The 
size runs fully as large or larger than Elberta.and fruits weighing 
5 to 6 ounces are common. Flesh is deep yellow, extremely juicy. 
and is absolutely freestone. In every case the Brackett has proved 
the equal of Elberta, and in many cases the Georgia growers con. 
sider it a more profitable sort. One Southern peach grower 
claims that Brackett averages 50 cents a bushel higher than other 
varieties. 
We have a limited stock of trees which have been grown with 
extreme care. This block of Brackett was propagated from buds 
cut in our own bearing orchards; therefore we know the trees are 
absolutely true to name. The commercial grower or the home 
orchardist who plants the Brackett will make no mistake either 
from the standpoints of production or profit.
