Stark Bro’s can offer their customers the apple for which we 
have been searching for many years! An apple that ripens as 
early as cherries—and is really good to-eat right off the tree. 
Stark Earliest is a strikingly handsome apple with a flash- 
ing crimson cheek. It was picked in our orchard at the same 
time as the Gold Cherry crop last year. Can be picked over a 
period of two or three weeks (almost an “everbearing” apple) 
—is ideal for home orchard and roadside market and should 
be an excellent shipper. ss 
Medium size—larger than Trarsparent—with scarlet red 
color that strikes the eye clear across the orchard. Flavor is 
mild and pleasant—good to eat right off the tree—not acid 
like other early apples. Fruit ripens about a week to 10 days 
before Yellow Transparent. is ripe. Stark Earliest is by far 
the earliest apple in our Test Orchards. Cooking, Eating, 
Market. Available in both Standard and Dwarf Trees. Pat- 
ented, Introduced, and Trees sold ONLY by Stark Bro’s.
