“ Erlyvee—is a very early yellow-fleshed peach. It ripens about a week earlier 
than Mikado and is a freestone when dead ripe. The size is small unless well 
thinned. The quality is good for such an early peach. Its main fault is that its 
skin is very tender and requires careful handling. 
~ Fairhaven—is in season about with Sunhigh or two and one-half weeks before 
Elberta. This yellow-fleshed freestone has very fine quality and is very 
attractive. The trees are vigorous and tend to over bear if not well thinned. 
‘ Jerseyland—ripens about one week ahead of Golden Jubilee. The fruit is very 
dark red, yellow-fleshed and firm for an early peach. Reported as a freestone 
in New Jersey but clings at Geneva unless dead ripe. As hardy in bud as 
Redhaven and about the same season. 
Kalhaven—is an attractive medium sized, yellow-fleshed, freestone ripening about 
four days before Elberta. The quality is good and the flesh is firm enough 
to stand handling well. The variety sets fruit heavily and must be carefully 
thinned. 
~ Oriole—is in season about four weeks before Elberta. The tree is vigorous and 
productive. The fruit is medium to large in size, roundish, yellow, very good 
in quality, and a freestone. Its flesh has a greenish tinge that impairs its 
appearance. Oriole is notable for its hardiness. 
“Prairie Dawn—is an early, yellow-fleshed clingstone, ripening about ten days 
before Redhaven. The quality is fair since the flesh is rather coarse and not 
very firm. It is, however, one of the hardiest yellow-fleshed peaches and is 
vigorous and productive. 
~\Raritan Rose—is a white-fleshed freestone peach. The fruit is large and 
round-oval in shape. It is well washed with red color and attractive. The 
flesh is of good quality and considerably firmer than that of Cumberland 
which it is designed to replace. It ripens a few days before Golden Jubilee. 
The tree is productive and hardy. 
~Redhaven—is a highly colored, yellow-fleshed, freestone peach ripening a few 
days before Golden Jubilee or about with Oriole. It has good fruit quality 
and its flesh is very firm for an early peach. The trees set heavy crops and 
require early and thorough thinning or undersized fruit may result. The tree 
is vigorous and hardy. Redhaven is very slow to oxidize and excellent for 
freezing. 
“ Redrose—is another white-fleshed peach. The fruit, which ripens about ten 
days after Raritan Rose or just before Halehaven, is of good size, highly 
colored and of firm texture. Its quality is far superior to other white-fleshed 
peaches ripening in its season or earlier. This is a very productive variety. 
~™Southland—is a yellow-fleshed freestone of good quality, although the flesh tends 
to be slightly coarse. This firm peach stands handling well. It ripens just 
before Halehaven. 
“ Summerrose—is a large, attractive, white-fleshed freestone of high quality. 
It is in season about with Halehaven. The tree is vigorous and productive.
