ALLEN'S NURSERIES, GENEVA, OHIO 
HALE-HAVEN. A large new yellow freestone; 
developed at Michigan Experiment Station, by cross¬ 
ing the two popular varieties, J. H. Hale and South 
Haven. Its high color even before complete ripening, 
gives great market value because of the advantage 
of premature picking, packing, and shipping without 
loss. It tests very high for hardiness and production ; 
and is in truth, a splendid, profitable variety—richly 
colored and flavored. Ready two weeks before Elberta. 
HEATH CLING. White clingstone, very large, 
used for pickling and canning with stone in, good 
flavor. Ripens in October. 
J. H. HALE. Enormous size, ripens 5 days 
earlier than Elberta. A beautiful round golden yellow 
Peach, has wonderful flavor, keeps well and is an 
all-around wonderful market sort for planting. 
LEMON PB.EE. Lemon shape and color, light 
yellow inside; extra good for canning, one of the best 
bearers in existence, very hardy in all climates. A 
good sort for commercial plantings. 
SOUTH HAVEN 
Hardee peach 
Patented Variety 
The fruit is a yellow freestone peach, having a thick 
skin, and in size, color, texture and juiciness of flesh, 
and general appearance resembling Elberta, except that 
it has a more prominent tip, and that it is more elong¬ 
ated than Elberta or other known varieties of Peaches 
ripening at about the same time. The fruit is a deep 
yellow color with a striking red cheek. 
The fruit’s shipping and keeping qualities are good. 
It is a good all-purpose Peach, having fine qualifica¬ 
tions for dessert, cooking, and canning. It is good for 
home use and is also a good market Peach. A DE¬ 
LICIOUS HIGH QUALITY YELLOW FREESTONE 
PEACH WITH OUTSTANDING “BUD” AND “WOOD” 
HARDINESS. Ripens in Northern Ohio about Sep¬ 
tember 10th. 
The particular feature of the original tree, which was 
considered most important was its steady bearing, sure- 
cropping characteristic, and this, with the other char¬ 
acteristics above described, has been reproduced in the 
reproductions by budding. It has resisted well the dry 
seasons encountered, and is particularly resistant to 
cold. Accordingly, the hardiness of this variety in its 
resistance to cold is an outstanding characteristic.

NEW FROLiriC. A very prolific, high grade yellow free¬ 
stone Peach, ripens week after Elberta and is by many people 
thought the best canning Peach there is. We strongly recommend 
this as one of the home and commercial sorts. September. 
MARIGOLD. Introduced a few years ago by the New Jersey 
Experiment Station, ripens about 5 days after Mikado. Tree is 
large and productive, and its fruit resembles Mikado in size and 
appearance, but is better in quality and nearly a freestone. 
MAYFLOWER. Bright red cheeked, the only July Peach 
that is well colored. Inclined to overbear, should always be thinned. 
MIKADO. (June Elberta.) Semi-clingstone, ripens 30 days 
ahead of Elberta. Yellow with red cheek ; quality excellent, makes 
good Peach for early roadside trade ; very productive and hardy. 
ORIOLE. Another variety from the New Jersey Station, is 
ready by the middle of August, a week after Marigold, and about 
a week ahead of Rochester. The tree is large and very productive. 
The fruit is medium to large in size, roundish, yellow, very good in 
mmlifv on a f i*PPQfr>DP 
RADIANCE. Also originated at the New Jersey Station; 
white; freestone ; high quality; slightly softer than Cumberland 
and lacks uniformity of size. Hardy; ripens just after but over¬ 
laps Carman. 
ROCHESTER. Called the best early yellow freestone. Rip¬ 
ens about August 10th. Large, very free stone; tree strong grower; 
sells remarkably on the market; tree comes into bearing young and 
is prolific. We call it one of the best sorts for orchard planting. 
SALBERTA. A highly successful cross between Salwey and 
Elberta, conserving the size and quality of the Elberta and the 
lateness of the Salwey, making it a truly wonderful Peach ; it has 
been used in Northern Ohio successfully and pleases all who have 
tried it. September, late. 
SALWEY. Best late Peach sold on market, yellow, large 
and prolific; tree hardy and vigorous grower; flesh juicy, rich, 
sweet. Ripens October 1st. 
SHIPPERS’ LATE RED. (Big Red.) A new Peach with 
several distinctive claims. Of good round shape, bulkier than El¬ 
berta, so beautifully surfaced with red it attracts the eye. The 
flesh is yellow, sweet, juicy and of pleasing flavor; freestone. Bears 
young, annually and abundantly ; the tree is very hardy. Its great¬ 
est commercial advantage — aside from supreme quality — lies in its 
ability to stick on the tree much longer than most sorts, thus 
many times saving the entire crop where lack of time, continued 
rains or glutted markets create wastage. 
SOUTH HAVEN. (Early Ohio.) These two are identical. 
This Peach is a success, injecting into the market a valuable sort. 
Comes in a barren period preceding the Elberta, better than aver¬ 
age size, globular, dependable bearer, hardy and prolific. Meat is 
deep yellow, juicy and delicious, outside attractive deep yellow with 
red cheek. This is one of the best sorts for market. 
VEDETTE. A seedling of Elberta of Canadian origin. Rip¬ 
ens about 3 weeks before Elberta or just before South Haven. The 
tree is productive and the fruit large, roundish oval, yellow fleshed 
and a freestone. We recommend it for trial. 
VALIANT. A seedling of Elberta of Canadian origin. A large 
yellow-fleshed, high-colored Peach, ripening just after Vedette. 
Very hardy and productive. Same season as South Haven. 
WILMA. (Late Elberta.) A seedling of the Elberta, about 
10 days later, in shape a trifle rounder, colors up better, has better 
flavor, and has the advantage of coming when Elberta is gone.
