Peach Growing Proves One of America's Best Paging Crops 
• Plan and plant Bountiful Ridge Trees this year to maintain your production. Replace those inferior 
varieties with newer varieties of superior quality, more attractive appearance and more certain bearing 
ability. Plant to give the consuming public peaches of fine quality throughout the season. We offer peach 
varieties adapted to every growing section and every purpose. Plan to plant this year. 
NOTE 
Ripening order of varieties designated by 
bracketed numbers after name. Varieties over¬ 
lapping in ripening season indicated by sub- 
letter. Example, Elberta and Hale are about 
same season and are designated by numbers 13 
and 13A. We have endeavored to give you au¬ 
thentic ripening order of varieties, we list, but 
variations may occur due to soil, fertilization and 
climatic conditions. 
MAYFLOWER. (1) Earliest peach. Red all 
over, size medium, quality good, semi-eling. 
MIKADO. (2) The Mikado is again being given 
a great deal of publicity as a hardy, productive, 
early yellow peach ripening about two weeks after 
Mayflower or six weeks before Elberta. The tree is 
of medium size and vigor and should be interplanted 
with other varieties for cross-pollenization, as it lias 
self-sterile blossoms and will not produce unless 
inter-planted. The fruit is medium in size, round, 
semi-cling, attractive yellow and blushed with red. 
Quality is very good. If properly grown will ship 
well. 
RED BIRD (Early Wheeler). (3) Earliness, 
high color and productiveness make it very valu¬ 
able. Cling, very large. Creamy white over-spread 
with a bright, glowing red. Good shipper. 
ERLY-RED-FRE. (3a) See opposite page.

GREENSBORO (Semi-Cling). (4) Large yellow 
with splashes of bright red; highly colored; flesh 
white, very juicy and of good quality. Hardy, early. 
EARLY ROSE. (5) A white cling peach. Va¬ 
riety is a favorite with Southern peach growers. 
FISHER PEACH. (5a) See opposite page. 
ORIOLE. (6) Introduced by New Jersey experi¬ 
ment station in 1925 an early yellow Freestone peach 
ripens a few days ahead of Cumberland. Fruit 
medium size, yellow in color, blushed with red, and 
notable for fine quality. Tree is vigorous and pro¬ 
ductive. The fruit buds are very resistent to cold 
and will grow where others fail in northern sec¬ 
tion. A fine peach for local markets. 
CUMBERLAND. (6a) A N. J. Station Product. 
A seedling crossed with Greensboro. The tree is a 
vigorous grower and as hardy as Carman. The fruit 
is larger than Belle of Georgia: attractively colored 
with red, oval in shape. The flesh is white, almost 
free, firmer and better quality than Carman or Alton. 
Ripens just before Carman. 
GOLDEN JUBILEE. (6b) A development of 
the New Jersey Experiment Station, first offered by 
us during the Fall shipping season of 1928. Planted 
and producing in every peach producing section of 
the United States and Canada and stands without 
an equal as an early, yellow, freestone peach of ex¬ 
ceptional quality. The Golden Jubilee is a second 
g eneration seedling of the Elberta crossed with the 
reensboro. The tree is unusually hardy. The buds 
resist low Winter temperatures better than Elberta 
and open later than Elberta which insures a regular 
crop. The blossoms are self-fertile. The peach is 
medium to large size and firm. From observation 
we find that the peach develops better if a well bal¬ 
anced fertilizer is used and in the lighter sandy soils 
of the Southern Peach producing areas where Jubilee 
is inclined to set too heavy a crop, better fruit is 
obtained by thinning the fruit on the tree. As the 
tree grows older the fruit becomes firmer and de¬ 
velops more naturally. It proved to be the best 
money-making peach of the South this year, many 
sales running as high as $3.00 per bushel and we 
believe it will continue to gain in favor wherever it 
is properly cared for. NO GENERAL PLANTING 
OF PEACHES IS COMPLETE WITHOUT A LIB¬ 
ERAL AMOUNT OF GOLDEN JUBILEE TREES. 
Ripens about four to five weeks before Elberta. 
CARMAN. (6c) Hardy, sets fruit well, early 
white peach, red color, flesh medium fine, juicy. A 
home market variety. 
RADIANCE. (7) Large oval, white fleshed, 
freestone, good quality, good color, ripens after Car¬ 
man. 
FAIRS BEAUTY. (7a) An early peach follow¬ 
ing Golden Jubilee three to five days. Tree vigor¬ 
ous, spreading, very hardy in bud, often producing 
a crop w'lien other varieties are winter killed. Fruit 
is medium to large in size, skin a deep golden yel 
low blushed with bright red, the flesh is firm, ten¬ 
der, melting and juicy. Fruit hangs exceptionally 
well to tree and when full ripe is a perfect Free¬ 
stone, clinging slightly when the peach is hard ripe, 
an excellent market and canning peach which is 
adapted to both commercial and home use. It is 
recognized in the South as a superior early yellow 
canning peach. We strongly recommend this peach 
for trial as a commercial variety. The Fairs Beauty 
originated near Tyler, Texas and in trial plantings 
shows its adaptability to central and eastern grow¬ 
ing conditions. 
ROCHESTER. (8) Large, yellow and red 
peach. Flesh yellow and of fine quality. 
Medium Early Varieties 
COLORA. (9) Our own 
introduction of a hardy peach, 
introduced Spring of 1936. A 
new frost resistant, yellow free¬ 
stone peach. This peach origin¬ 
ated in Cecil County, Maryland, 
as a sprout coming from the 
root of a Brackett tree planted 
about 1920. It has been produc¬ 
ing constantly since about 1925 
and came through many years 
with a full crop when the buds 
of Brackett on the same tree 
were entirely frozen out. Sec¬ 
ond generation trees as well as 
the original branch have with¬ 
stood temperatures during the 
past winters of about 17 degrees 
below zero, when most other va¬ 
rieties such as Elberta, Hiley 
Belle, Belle of Georgia, Early El¬ 
berta and J. H. Hale were wiped 
out by these low temperatures. The peach is an 
attractive yellow, freestone, well-colored and of ex¬ 
cellent quality, ripening about 15 to 20 days before 
Elberta. In size, it is about the same as Elberta, 
being typical Elberta in shape. We believe the 
planters will find this a valuable variety for plant¬ 
ing in cold areas. 
VEDETTE. (9a) A product of the Vineland 
Experimental Station, in Canada, proving unusually 
well adapted in the various peach growing sections 
of the United States. A seedling of Elberta, re¬ 
sembling that variety in color and type of flesh, but 
is more globular in shape, more highly colored, and 
of much finer quality. The fruit is of large size, 
yellow fleshed, freestone. The tree is vigorous, very 
hardy, comes into bearing early and is very pro¬ 
ductive. The Vedette is proving very satisfactory 
in trial plantings near Columbia and Clemson, South 
Carolina, as well as other peach growing sections of 
the Central and Eastern States. The fruit is firm 
and a good shipper, ripening about one week after 
Golden Jubilee. A fine peach that promises to be a 
real money-maker for the Southern Planter as well 
as other sections, replacing the old Hiley with a 
larger, better quality, yellow, freestone, productive 
peach. 
NEW EARLY HILEY. (9b) A new strain of this 
famous peach originating in Georgia. Has all the 
characteristics of its famous parent, but is a full 
week earlier in ripening. 
HALE HAVE A ( 10 ) 
THE HALE HAVEN COMES THRU - NORTH, 
EAST, SOUTH, WEST - IN 1938 
We know of no peach of recent introduction 
that is proving so universally satisfactory as the 
Hale Haven. It is now an unchallenged leader of 
peaches to follow Jubilee, Vedette and Golden East 
being its nearest rivals. A product of the South 
Haven experimental station in Michigan. A definite 
improvement over the South Haven, being more re¬ 
sistant to low Winter temperatures. Freestone, 
tough skin, highly colored, adapted to large com¬ 
mercial plantings. Tree vigorous, fruit large glob¬ 
ular shape as Hale. Resembles this variety. Two 
weeks earlier than Hale and Elberta. Extremely 
high quality, good shipper. 
SOUTH HAVEN. (10a) An excellent peach, tree 
thrifty and productive. Peach of Elberta type, 
ripening 15 to 18 days before Elberta. Freestone, 
yellow fleshed, ripens its crop over a period of ten 
days, making it desirable for local or roadside mar¬ 
kets. 
HILEY BELLE. (11) Medium size, W’hite fleshed, 
freestone peach, beautiful red blush, and tough skin, 
juicy and tender. 
SLAPPY IMP. (11a) A selected strain of Slap- 
py which we consider superior to the regular Slap- 
py variety. Yellow freestone, very good quality, 
ripening Hiley Belle time. 
VALIANT, (lib) A seedling of Elberta intro¬ 
duced by Experiment Station, Vineland, Ontario, 
Canada. A large yellow fleshed, high colored peach, 
ripening 3 to 7 days after Vedette. Excellent qual¬ 
ity fruit, hardy tree and very productive. We re¬ 
commend it for trial. 
ECLIPSE. (11c) Dark red, yellow fleshed, free¬ 
stone peach, firm texture, good flavor. Ripening 
with Hiley. 
CHAMPION (Free), (lid) Large yellowish-white 
mottled with red. Flesh white and red at pit. 
CRAWFORDS EARLY, (lie) Large, round, 
bright yellow with red cheek, flesh yellow, juicy, 
sweet, quality good. 
FITZGERALD (Free). (Ilf) Improved Early 
Crawford. A bright yellow blushed with red. Flesh 
deep yellow and of best quality. Early freestone. 
EARLY ELBERTA. (12) A great commercial 
peach in the Central and Northern peach producing 
areas where the markets are not too distant and 
quality is a deciding factor. One of the most beau¬ 
tiful of the Elberta type peaches. A very large, 
attractively colored, yellow fleshed, freestone peach 
ripening with Belle of Georgia or from 3 to 8 days 
before the regular Elberta. The highest quality 
peach of all the Elberta types grown commercially. 
The trees are hardy, thrifty, and bear consistently. 
The deep lemon yellow colored skin, blushed with 
bright red makes it very attractive and the peach 
retains a beautiful golden yellow color after being 
Canned. IF YOUR MARKET DEMANDS QUALITY 
AND BEAUTY PLANT THE EARLY ELBERTA. 
Our trees are propogated from the old original 
strain of Early Elberta. 
PRIMROSE. (12a) A large yellow fleshed, free¬ 
stone of good quality, ripens with Belle of Georgia. 
BELLE OF GEORGIA. (12b) Fruit large, col¬ 
or red and white, flesh white, firm, highly flavored.
