Champion, but Stark’s true strain is one of the most deliciously 
flavored of all peaches. Sweet, rich. The skin is creamy white 
with a beautiful red blush; and white flesh is tender, juicy, 
luscious. Tree hardy, good bearer. Buds are winter hardy. The 
standard quality white-fleshed peach. Prefers rich well drained 
soil. Too soft to ship but unexcelled for home orchards and 
local market. Plant Stark Record-Bearing strain. Ripens 10

a Hale and South Haven cross, combining quality and appear- 
ance of Hale with hardiness, vigor of tree and ripening season 
of South Haven. Although recently introduced, Halehaven is 
steadily gaining favor over South Haven because of its size, 
more beautiful color, stronger skin and less tendency to cling to 
seed. Trees hardy, vigorous, strong growers, bear young and 
heavily. Fruit large, round like Hale with attractive contrasting 
rich red and yellow color. One of the most beautiful of all 
peaches. Should be planted in every orchard. We grow the 
iginal tree strain, from Mich. Dr. Dorsey, discussing New 
Varieties stated: ‘‘Halehaven stands out as the most 
promising of its season, about as hardy as South Haven and 
has better fruit characteristics It ranks ‘1’ in hardiness.”
