FLAVORCREST,
SC Popular California peach in Redhaven season. Midsize, with 60-80%
red over yellow. Good shipper, sets heavy. Early bloom ahead of Redhaven.
GLOHAVEN,
F Fruit is large, nearly round with a highly colored skin. Practically
fuzzless. Yellow, firm flesh and a pleasant flavor. Its canning and
freezing qualities are superior. Moderately hardy buds.
LORING,
F Fruit is uniform shape, nearly round, of medium to large size.
Develops a bright red blush over a yellow ground color. Firm, yellow
flesh.
SUNCREST,
F Fruit is large, round and has light pubescence. About 2/3 of surface
covered with a bright, red blush over a yellow ground color. Flesh yellow,
firm but melting, and of good texture and flavor.
BERENDA
SUN, F One of best appearing peaches of the season. It has a very
deep red cover over virtually the entire surface of the fruit. Superb
flavor, juicy flesh with firm texture, an excellent shipper. The storage
life is slightly longer than any of its competition. The fruit is medium
to large with bright, full red color, peaking in the 50's and 60's in
sizes.
JULY
SUN, F One of the most productive peaches of the mid season fruits.
It has a very attractive 60-90% red blush over a yellow background.
This peach looks like a real peach and cannot be mistaken for anything
else. The ability to crop and size a very large crop, makes this peach
one of the favorites in the later areas of the United States.
