PLYMOUTH ROCK A leader in peaches, comparatively new, whose great merits cause it to be in large demand. The largest and best early peach yet introduced. A great improvement upon Alexander, with which it ripens, blooms late, a sure and abundant bearer, strong grower, does not rot, and comes into bearing early.

The tree is a vigorous, clean grower, an early and heavy, annual bearer. We have greatly reduced the price of it (see below) as als
