Grane New Hybrid Tomato, Early Delicious 
New Hybrid Tomato 
BREEDERS 
An early midseason hybrid—ripe in 65 days. This grand 
new hybrid is rapidly replacing other varieties in the large To- 
mato-shipping areas of California, the south and east, both for 
ripe pack and green-wrap shipping. Thick walls and solid flesh 
account for its surprising shipping quality. Average weight 
close to 6 ozs. and 85% of the pick is uniform deep globe 
shape. Very smooth, round shoulders, bright red color 
throughout. An excellent flavor very choice for canning, 
market and home-garden. Very prolific bearer over a long 
period. Can be staked or trellised as well as allowed to spread 
on the ground. A Southern University trial proved our Breed- 
ers Hybrid the highest yielder among 28 varieties tested, ex- 
ceeding Stokesdale by 15% and Rutgers by 28% in yield. Be 
very sure to try it this year. Pkt. (50 seeds) 50 cts.; 2 pkts.

in 55 days from setting out the plants. A true first- 
generation hybrid. Our new Early Delicious Hybrid 
won first place in yield in competition with 72 other

trial and was awarded A No. 1 Rating! Widely 
adapted. Strong indeterminate vine; fruits medium 
large, intermediate globe, color deep dark red, very 
smooth, free from cracking. Very uniform in shape and 
size, thick fleshed; excellent mild flavor. A sure winner 
for market-gardeners and home-gardeners. Fine for 
staking or trellising as wellas ground coverage. Remem- 
ber it outyielded 72 other early varieties; therefore 
you will want to try it. We received such a tremendous 
number of orders for this new Early Hybrid in 1952 
when it was first offered that our entire crop of seed 
was sold early. Last year orders increased 100 per cent.
