a better color. The fruit is medium size, 
with an attractive blush overlaying a 
yellow skin. Flesh is yellow, sweet and 
juicy. Popular in the markets. (Avail¬ 
able on apricot root.) 
Elberta. July. The most widely known 
and widely grown peach in the United 
States. In California it is used exten¬ 
sively for both fresh shipment and dry¬ 
ing. The fruit is large, yellow in color; 
the flesh of good quality. The tree is a 
strong grower and heavy producer. 
(Available on apricot root.) 
Florence. Early June. A new early 
variety ripening before Alexander, and 
leading it in commercial popularity. It 
is a white-fleshed semi-cling of attrac¬ 
tive color. Flesh is firm and it is a good 
shipper. Tree is a strong grower and 
consistent producer. 
I. H. Hale. July. One of the most widely 
planted shipping peaches. The fruit is 
large in size, beautiful in appearance. 
The almost fuzzless skin is overspread 
with deep crimson; the flesh is yellow, 
red at the pit, unusually firm. The tree is 
sturdy, though small. Ripens just after 
Elberta. Requires pollination by Elberta 
for best results. (Available on apricot 
root.) 
Late Crawford. August. One of our old¬ 
est varieties and still recommended as 
the best peach for its season in the 
home orchard. The fruit is round-oval, 
compressed, with unequal halves. Skin 
is a deep yellow splashed with red; 
flesh is yellow, of good texture and 
separates readily from the pit. 
Summer-canned Sullivan Clings are a 
winter-time delight 
Lovell. August. Known as the "three- 
way" peach. It is used extensively for 
shipping, drying and canning. Most 
popular for its drying qualities, it has 
a good reputation for sizing up well 
and having a “narrow" drying ratio. 
One of its outstanding merits is the 
vigor and high productivity of the tree. 
(Available on apricot root also.) 
Mayflower. Late May-June. Introduced 
by us as the earliest peach known and 
still holds that title. The fruit is of me¬ 
dium size; skin greenish-white with red 
blush. Flesh is white, juicy and partial¬ 
ly free. Good flavor. 
Miller's Late. November. California's 
latest commercial variety. A large, yel¬ 
low freestone of good quality, for late 
peach shipments. A good late peach for 
the home orchard in warm sections. 
Muir. August. The peach that many 
consider the "made to order" variety for 
commercial drying. It is universally 
recognized as the finest dried peach 
produced in California. The fruit is very 
large, a clear yellow to the pit and very 
sweet. (Available on apricot root also.) 
Exceptional productivity is a result of 
careful bud selection 
Triumph. June. The earliest yellow 
fleshed peach. The fruit is medium to 
large with dark red skin. The flesh is 
fair in quality and partially free at the 
pit. 
Yellow St. John. Early July. Recognized 
everywhere as a high quality early yel¬ 
low-flesh peach. The fruit is medium in 
size, roundish and well colored. The 
flesh is of fine eating quality and free 
at the pit. It is an excellent shipper.

• The home owner who has very limited space at his command can now have 
home grown fruits of different varieties without crowding his trees. To meet the 
demands of planters who v/ish a succession of fruits but who have room for only 
a few trees we propagate three varieties on one tree. Three of these triple-budded 
trees in the back yard will provide a succession of nine different varieties. These 
trees will also give pleasure during the blooming season with their varying 
flowers. 
Peach includes Hales Early, a variety ripening in early July, bearing white- 
fleshed, attractive fruit of excellent flavor and aroma; the Elberta, the best known 
freestone peach in America, ripening in late July; and the Late Crawford, an 
August peach of good size and fine quality. 
Nectarine includes Gold Mine, an early variety ripening in early July with white 
flesh contained in a large, attractive fruit of delicious flavor; the Stanwick, Califor¬ 
nia's widely known all-purpose variety ripening in early August, also white 
fleshed and freestone; and the Victoria, a white fleshed freestone with deep red 
skin, of good size and ripening in late August. 
Plum includes Climax, the popular red skinned early variety ripening in mid-June, 
with juicy, rich flesh of excellent flavor; the Leib's Blood Red, an early July sort 
with large, beautiful dark red fruit and blood-red flesh of fine texture and de¬ 
licious flavor that parts readily from the pit; and Kelsey Japan, the popular August- 
ripening variety with greenish-yellow skin, an attractive red blush, and firm, juicy 
flesh.
