stone. Delicious is in season just ahead of Carman and surpasses that 
variety in appearance and quality. 
Golden Jubilee—has become a popular early variety. It resembles Elberta in 
shape, but is better in quality and ripens 3 weeks earlier. The skin is yellow, 
blushed with red; flesh yellow, juicy, medium firm, tender, sweet or slightly 
subacid; freestone. Desirable for home, local markets, and canning. 
Marigold—is an early peach that has filled a niche between the Mikado and 
Oriole. In shape, color, and flavor it resembles Arp, but while Arp is very 
stringy in texture and a strong cling, Marigold is a semi-cling with tender 
flesh. 
Oriole—is in season about a week after Marigold and a week ahead of Golden 
Jubilee. The tree is vigorous and productive. The fruit is medium to large 
in size, roundish, yellow, very good in quality, and a freestone. Its flesh has 
a greenish tinge that impairs its appearance. Oriole is notable as an early 
peach of high quality. 
Raritan Rose—is a white-fleshed freestone peach obtained by crossing J. H. 
Hale with Cumberland. The fruit is large and round-oval in shape. It is 
well washed with red color and attractive. The flesh is of good quality and 
considerably firmer than that of Cumberland which it is designed to re- 
place. It ripens a few days before Golden Jubilee. 
Redrose—is another white-fleshed peach and was obtained by crossing J. 
H. Hale with Delicious. The fruit, which ripens about ten days after Rari- 
tan Rose or just before Halehaven, is of good size, highly colored and of 
firm texture. Its quality is far superior to other white-fleshed peaches 
ripening in its season or earlier. 
Sunhigh—is a seedling of J. H. Hale crossed with a seedling of Carman by 
Slappey. It is a large, highly-colored, bright, firm, smooth peach which 
ripens a few days before Halehaven. It is a freestone with attractive yellow 
flesh and its quality ranks among the best of the new peaches recommended 
for trial in New York. 
Triogem—was produced by crossing J. H. Hale with Marigold. It is a yellow 
freestone peach, oval in shape and ripens about two days after Golden 
Jubilee or three weeks before Elberta. The fruit is highly colored, has 
short pubescence and is very attractive. The flesh is firm and the variety 
stands handling much better than Golden Jubilee in addition to having 
much better quality. The trees are productive and require thorough thinning. 
The three varieti¢s of peaches described below originated at the Horticultural 
Experiment Station, Vineland, Ontario, Canada. 
Valiant—is a seedling of Elberta. The fruit is large, roundish oblate, yellow 
blushed with red, with firm juicy flesh of very good quality; a freestone. The 
trees are productive. It is in season by the first of September or about two 
weeks ahead of Elberta. Noteworthy because of earliness and rich delectable 
flavor.
