New. Fuzzless. For years we conducted a nation-wide search 
for Fuzzless Peaches similar to the famous Burbank Flaming 
Gold, so fruit growers could have this delicious new type fruit 
ripening from earliest to latest. Great was our interest, there- 
fore, when R. H. King, the famous peach grower and Ex- 
perimental Horticulturist, sent us new Hybrids from seeds of 
the Burbank Flaming Gold. After testing them, we now offer 
the Stark Early Flame as the earliest, yellow-fleshed fuzzless 
peach; as good in size, color and quality as its parent, and 2 
weeks earlier—with Golden Jubilee and very early peaches. 
Skin is smooth and glossy and the color is rich red underlaid 
with gold. Flesh is yellow, firm, ‘“‘chewy.’’ Closely resembles 
Flaming Gold, its parent, in its unique, rich, tangy flavor. 
Ripe so early, it does not compete with mid-season peaches. 
Tree strong, sturdy, hardier than most peaches. A tree loaded 
with this attractive fiery red fruit, mingled with the dark green 
foliage, is a glorious sight long to be remembered. 
Mr. King, the originator, wrote us, ‘‘The public goes wild 
about these fuzzless peaches. They open an entirely new field 
in orcharding. My No. 1 (Stark Early Flame) ripens at a date 
that finds a completely bare market as far as fine peaches or 
nectarines are concerned. The No. 1 trees are so hardy they 
bear when all others fail.’”’ 
Every fruit grower will want to plant this splendid new, early, 
delicious Fuzzless Peach. Good keeper and shipper. Excellent 
for Home, Roadside Stands and Markets. Ripe 20 days before 
Elberta. Eating, Cooking, Canning, Market. NCS. Intro- 
duced and Trees Sold ONLY by Stark Bro’s.

This is the amazing new fuzzless peach you have recently 
read about in the press. Just what its name implies—a big, 
attractive, glossy skinned peach with no fuzz whatever. 
After more than one quarter of a century spent in cross 
breeding and hybridizing many types of peaches in Nebraska, 
Dr. F. W. HofMan, famous horticulturist, produced his ideal 
—A large peach with waxy skin and high quality and unlike 
old Nectarine types—good size. Fuzzless-Berta has been thor- 
oughly tested in Nebraska where it survived many below-zero 
winters. Dr. HofMan also grew and tested it in Virginia where 
he found it more frost resistant than such peaches as Elberta, 
and also highly resistant to brown rot. 
Stark Bro’s have tested Fuzzless-Berta in the famous Stark 
Test Orchards and find it a beautiful, large size fruit with 
smooth, waxy skin, golden yellow, almost covered with fiery 
bright red. The delicious flavor, golden yellow flesh and free- 
dom from fuzz should make this new fruit popular in every 
home or market orchard. Tree hardy, healthy and disease 
resistant. Bears very young, producing fruit even in the nur- 
sery row. Order early as our supply of trees is limited. Fuzz- 
less-Berta should be planted with Stark Early Flame and 
Burbank’s Flaming Gold to insure a succession of delicious 
Fuzzless Peaches ripening through the season. The great de- 
mand for fruits that are newer, different and more delicious 
will open up a highly profitable market for these new finer 
fruits—these luscious Fuzzless Peaches. Ripe about with Elberta.

Luther Burbank has here created a perfect blending of a 
nectarine and a delicious yellow freestone peach. He declared: 
“The very finest of my fuzzless peaches.’’ We have tested all 
of Burbank’s new creations, Flaming Gold is larger, better col- 
ored, better flavored than any of his other fuzzless peaches. 
Flaming Gold has waxy, fuzz-free skin of flaming wine red 
over vivid gold. Rich flavored, golden orange flesh of honey 
sweetness and wine-like sprightliness. Stone is perfectly free 
and small. Flesh firm; a splendid shipper; does not crack. A 
luxury fruit for the home—one that assures great profits for 
the commercial orchard. Very young bearing and hardy. After 
the coldest winter in 20 years (14° below zero) 1-year trees in 
our nursery were loaded with blossoms and set a good crop. 
(Photo below) Resistant to disease, rot, etc. Succeeds wherever 
peaches grow. Should be planted in all orchards to. add variety 
and a new thrill for those who like delicious fruit. 
By using Burbank’s Flaming Gold as a parent, R. H. King, 
the peach expert, originated a new family of Fuzzless Peaches 
ripening from earliest to latest. Our Fruit Experts were so 
enthusiastic abcut the value of these new and unique Fuzzless 
Peaches and the great contribution these luscious new fruits 
would make to Horticulture, that we purchased his entire group.
