N Sunhigh—is a large, highly-colored, bright, firm, smooth peach which ripens 
a few days before Halehaven. It is a freestone with attractive yellow flesh 
and its quality ranks among the best of the new peaches recommended for 
trial in New York. It is as hardy as Elberta. 
‘ Triogem—is a yellow freestone peach, oval in shape and ripens about two days 
after Golden Jubilee or three weeks before Elberta. The fruit is highly 
colored, has short pubescence and is very attractive. The flesh is firm and 
the variety stands handling much better than Golden Jubilee in addition to 
having much better quality. The trees are productive and require thorough 
thinning. Triogem is very good for freezing. 
\ Veteran—is large, round, yellow fleshed, usually a freestone and far superior 
to Elberta in quality. The fruit freezes well. Since it ripens a few days later 
than Valiant, it makes a desirable sort to follow that variety. It is a pro- 
ductive variety and hardy in bud. 
APRICOTS 
It is recommended that at least two varieties be planted closely in order 
to induce better fruitfulness.

since they were selected in 1949. The fruit is medium to large in size and at- 
tractive. Both are freestone and of very good quality. New York 346 is larger
