in those areas in which low winter temperatures occur frequently. A very 
popular variety in New Jersey to precede Goldeneast. Has often topped the 
market. 
GOLDENEAST (N. J. 87) 
A very large, firm, highly colored, yellow-fleshed freestone of exceptional 
quality ripening about 2 weeks before Elberta, or at the same time as Hiley. 
This is an ideal peach for the commercial grower because of its firm flesh, large 
size, and attractive appearance. The dormant buds are medium in hardiness 
and for that reason the trees are likely to be most productive in areas having 
winter temperatures no lower than generally occur in southern New Jersey. 
SUMMERCREST (N. J. 94) 
A large, oval, yellow freestone of high quality ripening just before Elberta. 
The fruit does not develop quite so much red color as Triogem, Sunhigh, or 
Goldeneast but is attractive unless the trees are too vegetative or it is picked 
when it is too green. It is most attractive when planted on one of the relatively 
light peach soils. Summercrest is an excellent variety to precede Elberta. It is 
in demand for home canning. 
WHITE HALE (N. J. 63) (U.S. Plant Patent 31) 
A large to very large, firm, white-fleshed freestone ripening with Elberta 
and J. H. Hale. The tree is more vigorous than J. H. Hale and the flowers are 
perfect. The quality of the fruit is good and it hangs to the tree exceptionally 
well. It is an excellent variety for growers who want large, firm, white-fleshed 
peaches during the Elberta season. 
AFTERGLOW (N. J. 84) 
A large, yellow-fleshed, dark red, freestone of good quality ripening im- 
mediately after Elberta. It has been hardier than Elberta in New Jersey. This 
is a good variety to prolong the Elberta season. 
N. J. 109 
A large, oval, firm, attractive, white-fleshed freestone of good quality, ripen- 
ing immediately after Elberta or at the same time as Afterglow. This is an 
excellent white-fleshed peach to follow White Hale.
