THE FLORY DWARF PEACH 
This strikingly new Natural 
dwarfed tree is literally covered 
with the largest and most beau- 
tiful peach blossoms you have 
ever seen. They cover each 
branch so tightly and completely 
around each twig that it resem- 
bles a huge red lilac. 
Now the Flory isn’t satisfied 
with just being small and beauti- 
ful, it insists on producing 200 to 
300 medium sized, white fleshed 
fruit with plenty of rich, sweet 
Juice just ready to run down 
your chin as soon as you take a 
bite. They are good canned, too! 
The leaves are long, narrow, 
and very attractive. They clothe 
the tree from the end of March 
until late November. 
And best of all, it never grows 
over 5 feet high. 
Not only is the Flory peach 
amazing in itself but it has quite 
a history, too: 
In the summer of 1939, an 
American Army officer on a mis- 
sion for the Chinese Nationalist 
Army, was in Northern China. 
While staying with a Chinese 
family he noticed a small peach 
tree loaded with fruit. He ate a 
few peaches, and because of their 
unique flavor and the small size 
of the tree, he put three of the 
pits in the pocket of his leather 
coat. 
Shortly after that he was 
wounded by the Japanese and 
was sent home to the United 
States. He was then transferred 
to a hospital in Modesto, Califor- 
nia, where he recovered. Before 
he left Modesto for his home in 
the Kast he found his three peach 
pits and planted them at the 
home of a friend, Mr. C. R. Flory. 
One tree was the result of this 
planting, and all the trees we 
have today are the direct de- 
scendants of that tree. Mr. Flory 
immediately saw the horticul- 
tural importance and value of 
this tree which now bears his 
name. He has selected and prop- 
agated the best strains until just 
now we are ready to put this new 
tree on the market.
