Select Peach Trees 
Arranged as nearly as possible in order of ripening. Differences in seasons, soil, 
location, culture, and age of trees, all have their influence on the time of ripening of the 
different varieties. 
Mayflower —This is the earliest peach to 
ripen and among the earliest to bear. Color, 
red all over. Medium to large in size. The 
beautiful solid red and the fact that it is 
the earliest of all peaches to ripen makes it 
sell well on the market. It sets so much fruit 
that it should be thinned. 
Greensboro —A hardy, early peach ripening 
the latter part of July. It is beautiful in 
appearance; a large white peach, one side 
covered with light and dark crimson, and 
freestone when fully ripe. We regard this 
a valuable market variety. 
“Its large size, attractive appearance and 
reliability in bearing combine to make it one 
of the best of its season. ”—Ohio Ex. Sta. 
Bull. 170. 
“Largest of all early peaches, beautifully 
colored with light and dark red, shaded with 
yellow, which makes it a great beauty.’’— 
J. Van Lindley Nursery Co. 
Triumph —An early yellow peach subject 
to rot in some seasons, otherwise a nice peach. 
Waddell —Fruit medium, oblong; color, 
creamy white, with bright blush on sunny 
side, often covering two-thirds of the peach; 
freestone; ripening two weeks before Mt. 
Rose. 
“An excellent medium early variety for 
home and market, stands shipping well, even 
long distances.”—Ohio Ex. Station. 
Carman 
Carman—This variety is almost as large as 
Elberta, of nearly same shape; white with 
beautiful red cheek, one of the most hardy 
and reliable bearers. The market has never 
yet been fully supplied with fruit of this 
variety, and we recommend it for commercial 
planting. One week before Mountain Rose. 
“ Quality extra good, well worth planting.” 
—H. E. Yan Deman. 
“In some respects the most profitable and 
valuable peach in America.”—J. H. Hale. 
Mayflower Peach 
Hieley—This seedling of Belle of Georgia, 
one of the best of all peaches of North China 
type, the kind that are among our most hardy, 
is white, nearly covered in red, is of good size 
and quality, and a perfect freestone. We rec¬ 
ommend it for commercial planting; ripens 
just before Mountain Rose. 
• ‘ Take my word for it, don’t miss planting 
Hieley, it is a money maker, sure.”—J. H. 
Hale. 
Mountain Rose—Fruit large, roundish; 
skin whitish, nearly covered with light and 
dark rich red; and extra fine quality; perfect 
freestone. August 25th to September 1st. 
Champion—Fruit large, flavor delicious, 
rich, sweet, juicy; skin creamy white, with 
red cheeks. The peculiarity of this handsome 
peach is the hardiness of its fruit buds. Is 
largely planted by commercial growers. Sep¬ 
tember 1st to 5th.
