It is a "bud sport" of pronounced superior merits. Being triple-red colored and the earliest red coloring strain known. Colors Much Earlier Than Ordinary Delicious Harrisons' Red Delicious colors up weeks earlier than the ordinary strain. By coloring earlier the fruit can be picked while it is firm and it keeps better in storage. Size and Taste Size is all anyone could desire, as it runs from large to extra large. The large size, solid red color and characteristic five-knob end make it attract buyers in every market. Taste will be found on a par with its other points of advantage. The flavor is rich, slightly sub-acid, with an individuality which makes the palate call for more. You'll have no trouble with repeat sales for this variety. Ships and Keeps Well Harrisons' Red Delicious ships without bruising. In fact it ships better than the ordinary Delicious because its earlier coloring permits it to be picked when the fruit is more firm. Its large size makes it easy to pack attractively and the uniformity of size guarantees a good appearance. Large Profit Maker The ordinary Delicious is a proven profit maker and our Harrisons' Red Delicious is destined to outclass its predecessor due to the fact that it will produce more highly colored fruit and as most every fruit grower knows color plays an important part in the price the fruit sells for. Ideal for Home or Commercial Orchard Harrisons' Red Delicious is not only a commercial apple but it is every bit as well adapted to the home grounds. Whether you wish to plant a thousand or if you have room for only one tree, Harrisons' Red De- licious will give full value. Starts Red Coloring During Early August One of the unique features of our "bud sport" se- lected strain of Harrisons' Red Delicious is that it starts to take on bright red color during early August and has sufficient color for United States No. 1 grade for picking and shipment on the domestic markets, as well as export, several weeks earlier than Delicious. The Harrisons' Red Delicious is comparable, if not superior, to any of the other several new strains of Delicious as introduced, such as Starking, Richared De- licious, Shotwell Red Delicious and others. For several years we have sold Harrisons' Red Delicious trees at premium prices, but this year we are giving our cus- tomers the benefit and are selling at the same prices as other varieties of Apples.
