Introducing . . . 
New Fruits for Ho! 
These new peaches are the result of 20 years of effort on 
the part of Grant Merrill to produce peaches of exceptional 
flavor and color and ripening throughout the entire season. 
None of the varieties is recommended for commercial 
shipping since the qualities that make for a good shipping 
peach generally detract from the delicious flavor and tender, 
juicy flesh desired in a peach that is to be eaten tree-ripe on 
the home table. 
Planting all 12 of these varieties will assure you of peaches 
on your table from the first of the season to the last.
