NEW PROLIFIC. A very prolific, high grade yellow freestone 
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 
quality, and a freestone. 
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 overlaps Carman. 
ROCHESTER. Called the best early yellow freestone. Ripens 
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 Ist. 
SHIPPERS’ LATE RED. (Big Red.) A new Peach with several 
distinctive claims. Of good round shape, bulkier than Elberta, 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 greatest commercial ad- 
vantage—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 average 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. Ripens 
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 WVedette. 
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.

from Washington — Season 
1939, Jay Perry’s (Kenne- 
wick, Wash.) REDEL- 
BERTA Peaches sold 
wholesale at $1.25 per 
peach box. (First ordinary 
Elberta sold at 60¢ to 70c 
per box.) REDELBERTA 
was the first Washington 
grown Elberta to reach 
the market. 
from Ontario, Canada—“The 
ripening date makes it a 
winner. We have no other 
good peach ripening at the 
same date. I believe your 
Redalberta is the best 
peach known to precede 
Elberta.”’ 
from Indiana — “Redelberta 
ripened ahead of Early EI- 
berta and is certainly a 
beautiful peach—red all over. Had 
known what they were when I pur- 
chased them I would have bought a 
whole orchard of them. They have 
plenty of color, demand top market 
prices.”’ 
REDELBERTA fruit for canning and drying has 
identical characteristics and quality of ordinary 
Elberta—the only difference: earlier ripening 
season, with fully double the color.
