This is one of the finest quality of all Peaches. Al- 
most solid red all over when fully ripe. Perfectly free- 
stone, and the flesh is firm and meaty. Not soft and 
mushy like so many of the early Peaches. REDHAVEN 
is early, and a little smaller than Hale-Haven, but we 
feel this is due to the fact that this variety bears so 
heavily. We have thinned the fruit when two months 
from ripe, and have found that by doing this, they will 
become a very large Peach. So it would be well to thin 
them a little when they are on the branches thicker 
than 6 inches apart. Redhaven is self pollenizing, al- 
though it is always better to give it a mate of some 
other variety. Redhaven would be a good pollenizer 
for the Elberta, as Elberta is a little shy on bearing 
when set all alone. 
ROCHESTER 
Space does not allow us to illustrate Rochester. It’s a yellow 
freestone early Peach. The best early one. Cans and freezes well. 
Flavor is excellent. Hardy and bears when others fail. It’s an old 
variety, but one of the best. Prices are to right. 
ELBERTA 
The old famous variety needs no lengthy description. Fruit is 
very large, rather oblong in shape. Freestone, firm, and one of 
the best shippers. Trees grow larger than other varieties. Ripens 
a week later than Hale-Haven. Fruit deep yellow, with red blush; 
keeps well. Deep red around the freestone pit, with balance of the 
coe fine golden yellow. Elberta is the very best commercial 
each. 
J. H. HALE 
This variety is the giant of all Peaches. Large, round, thick 
flesh, with very small pit. Freestone. Richly flavored. Fine 
texture. Always sells for the highest price. Ripens a little later 
than Elberta. 
GOLDEN JUBILEE 
This is a newer Peach that ripens a few days after Rochester. 
Large size, shaped like an ELBERTA. A little better quality 
Peach than Elberta. Freestone and a fine canner and excellent for 
freezing. It’s a heavy producer. You will like GOLDEN JUBI- 
LEE. Prices are to right.

In a continuous effort to develop better Peach varieties that will 
ripen earlier than Elberta, the Michigan Agriculture Experiment 
Station at South Haven have introduced the FAIRHAVEN. 
It’s a cross between the South Haven and J. H. Hale varieties. 
It ripens at the end of REDHAVEN season, and a week before 
HALE-HAVEN. Half of the GOLDEN JUBILEE crop will be 

Red Haven 






duces large annual crops. At South Haven the spring of 1943 
and 1945 were extremely cold and foggy during blossoming season, 
yet FAIRHAVEN came through with full crops, when trees of 
many other varieties were unproductive. It’s truly a great Peach. 
Order early. Supply this year is very short. 2-yr., 9/16 in. trees, 
each $2.50. 2-yr., Super Size, 11/16 in. trees, each $3.00. No 
Discounts.
