Deciduous Fruits 
Red Ceylon. ( 0 . B.) Size large; color dull 
green; flesh blood-red; freestone. Most excellent 
for cooking. Flavor when cooked peculiar, sug¬ 
gesting prunellos. Too acid for most tastes when 
raw. Even more semi-tropical than Peen-to, and 
as unique in its way. Adapted to southern 
Florida and Cuba, where it bears heavily. 
Sneed. (N. C.) Very early, averaging eight 
to ten days earlier than Alexander. Fruit of 
medium size, somewhat oval in shape; color 
creamy white, with rich, red blush on sunny 
side; ripens evenly to the pit; flesh white; juicy; 
semi-cling. Of fine quality and not subject to 
rot. Seedling of Chinese cling, with the vigor of 
its parent in tree-growth and fruit-buds. 
Suber. (P.-to.) Seedling of the Peen-to, origi¬ 
nated at Lake Helen in southern Volusia County. 
Not materially different from BidwelLs Early, 
except that it is larger, firmer and a little more 
acid than the latter. Tree is a vigorous grower, 
prolific, and the fruit brings a high price in market. 
Taber. (Hon.) Large, roundish, oblong, 
pointed; skin white, overspread with red; flesh 
white, streaked with red; firm, very juicy, rich 
subacid; of fine quality; cling. Honey seedling, 
prolific. Fine for canning. June 15 to 25. 
Thurber. (N. C.) Large to very large; skin 
white, with light crimson mottlings; flesh juicy; 
Luttichau Peach 
vinous and of delicate aroma; texture exceedingly 
fine; free. Resembles Chinese Cling. July. 
Triana. (Hon.) Medium to large, roundish 
oblong, slightly pointed; skin white, overspread 
with red; flesh white, with red markings, rich, 
juicy, very sweet and of fine flavor; freestone. 
This variety, originated by us several years ago, 
is one of the very best. June 25 to July 5. 
Triumph. (Per.) Ripens with Alexander; 
blooms late. Strong grower; bears young and 
yields abundantly. Fruit is of large size, with 
very small pit; skin yellow, nearly covered with 
red, dark crimson in the sun. Flesh bright yel¬ 
low, free when fully ripe, of excellent flavor. 
Victor. (N. C. and Sp.) Fruit medium to 
large, of pleasant subacid flavor; semi-cling. 
The tree is a vigorous, compact grower, and a 
heavy annual bearer. The originator claims 
that it is uniformly ten days earlier than Sneed, 
which makes it undoubtedly the earliest variety 
in existence. Texas origin. May 8 to 16. 
Victoria. (Sp.) Very large, nearly round; 
skin yellow; flesh yellow, juicy, sweet, excellent 
flavor; free. One of the best native varieties, 
worthy of a place in every southern orchard. 
Fine for cooking and canning. August 5 to 10. 
Waldo. (P.-to.) Size medium, round, oblong, 
highly colored, light yellow, dark red on ex¬ 
posed parts. Flesh yellowish white, red at the 
stone, juicy, melting, sweet, of excellent qual¬ 
ity, freestone. Ripens with Peen-to. It is a free 
and regular bearer. Very valuable for Florida, 
and the Gulf Coast country. 
New Peach, Luttichau 
Size large; oval, with medium deep suture, 
rounded or blunt pointed at apex; color waxy 
greenish white washed or blushed with red, 
dotted on shaded specimens; skin thin, tough; 
flesh white, red at pit, solid, juicy; flavor sweet; 
quality excellent; pit medium-sized, free; a 
splendid shipper. Season May 25 to June 10. 
This fine Peach originated on the place of 
‘Baron H. Von Luttichau, Earleton, Fla., a 
number of years ago. Mr. Von Luttichau propa¬ 
gated from it and planted an orchard of his own 
which proved very profitable,the fruit bringing the 
top price wherever marketed. Originated in the 
same region as Jewel, Waldo and Angel. We have 
known this variety for years, are well acquainted 
with its merits and regard it as one of the finest 
commercial Peaches for Florida.
