  • the present discovery relates to a new and distinct variety of peach tree, found by me growing upon a tree of the variety known as Hills Chilli.
  • This peach so far as the plant is concerned, resembles the Belle of Georgia in leaf and color, is hardy, vigorous of growth, bearing regularly and heavily, and is very resistant to disease and insects, as determined by observation in comparison with other varieties grown under comparable conditions in the same orchard.
  • the fruit of this new variety resembles the well known Elberta in size and shape, having a skin also somewhat characteristic of that of the Elberta variety; its coloring when firm is yellow, with red cheeks and red sifting throughout the skin; posseses a iiavor and texture ner than Elberta; is dry-free stone; ships well, and is a good dessert fruit and a good canner, having especially unusual qualities as a commercial canner.
  • This new fruit ripens after South Haven and the three Vs and before Elberta," and further does not drop like Elberta, but hangs on the tree until thoroughly ripe.
  • Propagation Holds its distinguishing characteristics through succeeding propagations by cuttings, grafting and budding.
  • Tree Large; vigorous; spreading; open; vase formed; hardy; very productive; regular bearer.
  • Siga-Uniform Diameter, axial-21/2 inches up; transverse in suture plane-2% inches; at right angles to suture plane- 2%. inches.
  • Skim-Thin medium tender; free. Tendency to crack-none in Wet or dry season. Color-bright Yellow, sifted Red. Downcomparable to Elberta in this respect.
  • Stone Dry-free. Fibres-short Free-on sides toward base; parts from iiesh smoothly.
  • a new and distinct variety of peach tree characterized as to novelty by its hardiness, vigorous growth, resistance to disease and insects, and regular heavy bearing habits; skin of attractive color and comparable to Elberta with regard to pubescence; iine flavor and texture of the meat; dry-free stone; excellent shipping, eating and canning qualities; and persistence of the fruit to hang on tree until thoroughly ripe, all substantially as shown and described herein.
