Nectarines are Peaches, but have smooth 
skin like that of Plums. Fruit has the de¬ 
licious flavor of the Honey-type of Peaches, 
ripening in June and July. Customers, who 
have had our good varieties of Nectarines, 
have insisted that we should call more at¬ 
tention to them in our catalogue, because 
their value is not generally known. They 
are specially good in all parts except out 
on the Plains. 
BRECK. Originated in Austin. A dupli¬ 
cate of the Honey Peach in size, shape, and 
delicious quality. Does not crack open.
