  • the present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of peach tree, originated from v"seed 'resulting from hand pollination of a seedling of Swatow peach (unpatented) X Rio Oso Gem peach (Plant Patent No 84), with pollen froman unnamed seedling resulting from a cross of Babcockpeach (unpatented) X an unnamed seedling of Babcock peach X Swatow peach.
  • This new variety is distinct from its parents in that both parent varieties produce what is ordi- 2 of the flowers and fruit of the new variety, the fruit being shown'in elevation and also in section both withiand,withoutithe-stone. f
  • Trunk Moderatelyrstocv ioderately smooth. Branches: Medium"to "'stk fmedium smooth;
  • Colon-Bark color on older branches a'nd trunk is basically Russet, Plate XV (Ridgway) and streaked with Smoke Gray, Plate XLV'I (Ridgway). Where fully exposed to sun, bark is almost entirely Russet, Plate XV (Ridgway). New branches are Pea Green, Plate 61/2, page 6l; where exposed to sun they are Garnet Brown, Plate 00918/2, page 192. Lenticels.-Numerous; small. Leaves:
  • Leaf-near Deep Dull Yellow-Green (l), Plate XXXII (Ridgway). Lower surface of leafnear Asphodel Green, Plate XLI (Ridgway).
  • Petiole.-Medium length 9 to 10 mm.
  • Glenda- Average number 2 to 5. Usually alternate; medium size; reniform; position partly on petiole and partlyv on leaf base.
  • SepaZ.-Nonadnate portions are tomentose on the outer surface, length 3 mm.
  • the adnate portions forming the calyx are between Maroon, Plate I (Ridgeway), and Garnet Brown, Plate I (Ridgway) on the outer surface. Calyx inside near Mars Yellow, Plate III (Ridgway), as buds begin to unfold.
  • Petalage 12 to i4 with 1 to 4 pet-alolds. Petals arranged regularly two or three rows, overlapping to give a solid form. Petals lie nearly flat but slightly cupped adaxilly, with the petaloids twisted and irregular in arrange-i ment. 1 to 4 fiowers borne at each node. The nodes are 1/2 to 11/2 inches apart on the .flowering branches The flower diameter of.
  • Petal shape Nearly oval, round at apical point, tapering on the basal end to form the attachment point. Outer petals entire, slightly cupped adaxilly. Inner -petals sometimes entire, mostly crapelike giving an undulant margin. Petaloids very irregular.
  • Size Variable; medium size. Diameter, axial, 2% to 2% inches. Transverse in suture plane, 2% to 2% inches. At right angles to suture plane, 2% to 21A inches.
  • Form Uniform; slightly unsymmetrical; ovoid.
  • suture-An inconspicuous line extends from base to apex; has slight depression beyond pistil point.
  • Skin Medium thick; tough to medium; astringent; free from flesh. Tendency to crackslight to none in dry weather.
  • a new and distinct variety of ornamental and fruiting peach tree characterized as to novelty by its white-fleshed, freestone, edible fruit of relatively high quality and attractive color, by its relatively round stones pitted and furrowed sparsely with relatively deep pits and shallow furrows, by its winter dormancy requirement suitable to culture in subtropical climates, and by its exceptionally ornamental, many-petaled nowers of large size and attractive color. closely arranged 05 on their stems, substantially as shown'and described.
