Hardy, Freestone Peach, Excellent For Shipping 
HON-EE-GOLD 
This is the new peach which one of our custom- 
ers named for us. A native of Michigan and a 
proven variety that has all of the good points and 
none of the bad. 


















Large Size 
The Hon-ee-gold peach is a marvel in size, being 
slightly on the round type, 10% larger than Elberta, 
and ripens very late on the tree. Has a beautiful 
red cheek and packs up beautifully in the bushel. 
Shipping Qualities 
As to shipping qualities Hon-ee-gold is the best. In . 
our tests this peach simply does not rot, but dehy- 
drates and virtually dries up before rotting. Skin 
texture is heavy like Elberta, thus making an excel- 
lent peach for shipping. 
; Flavor 
Hon-ee-gold has an excellent flavor, being golden 
yellow inside with a slight amount of red next to 
the pit. Somewhat on the dry side, which helps its 
shipping qualities. 













Hardy Trees 
The commercial grower should look into the hardi- 
ness of any variety he plants for long life. Hon-ee- 
gold is a very thrifty upright growing tree. Has never 
winterkilled or shown any winter injury whatsoever 
here. We want every peach grower to plant one tree 
this year. Hon-ee-gold has everything that a real 
peach needs. Freestone.

Figs need to be planted on reasonably good soil. If the land gets too rich they make too 
fast a growth and forget to bear. If it gets cold and kills the plants, cut them back to the 
ground and let them come up again. If the soil is right, these young plants will begin to 
put on figs by the time they are a foot 
high. As these trees do not grow to a 
very large size, they can be easily pro- 
tected by covering with straw or any 
leafy material, provided cold weather 
hits them before they are ripe. Place a 
circle of chicken net around the tree and 
fill this entirely with straw which will 
give them complete protection. 
CELESTIAL FIG 
Especially hardy fig that will grow 
where many varieties fail to grow. 
Most popular variety in the fig raising areas. Medium size fruit of pear shape with violet 
skin and white flesh with rose shadings. Very sweet and juicy. Ripens early. Price: 2-3 ft, 
trees, $1.25 each; 2 for $2.25. 
NECTARINE (Fuzzless Peach) 
One of the most delicious of all fruits. Smooth skin like a plum. Has a rich flavor, juicy, 
and highly prized as a dessert fruit. Nectarines are as hardy as the peach and require the 
same culture. Fruit is a bright golden color with slightly red cheek. Tree is vigorous and 
bears young. Prices: Medium size trees, $1.95 each; 3 for $5.40.
