Its novelty consist of the following combination of desirable features:
1. Large size fruit maturing in the early season.
2. Fruit with excellent flavor and eating quality.
3. The tree with a vigorous, upright growth habit.
4. Fruit with a good balance between sugar and acid.
5. Fruit with good storage and handling quality.
6. Heavy and regular bearing of fruit.
7. Fruit with an attractive, reddish maroon color.
Description
Genus and species: [Prunus salicina×(Prunus salicina×Prunus armeniaca)×(Prunus persica×Prunus armeniaca)×Prunus armeniaca].
In the field of plant genetics, we conduct an extensive and continuing plant-breeding program including the organization and asexual reproduction of orchard trees, and of which plums, peaches, nectarines, apricots, cherries and interspecifics are exemplary. It was against this backgroud of our activities that the present variety of interspecific tree was originated and asexually reproduced by us in our experimental orchard located near Modesto, Stanislaus County, Calif.
Among the existing varieties of plum apricot and interspecific trees, which are known to us, and mentioned herein, ‘Mariposa’ Plum (U.S. Pat. No. 111), ‘Red Beaut’ Plum (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 2,539), ‘Modesto’ Apricot (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 2,543) and ‘Geo Pride’ Interspecific (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 10,386).
Not applicable.
The new and distinct interspecific tree was originated by us from crosses of the following species, Prunus salicina, Prunus armeniaca and Prunus persica. The present new variety was selected from a first generation cross between two proprietary parents with field identification numbers 288LF477 and 391LD449. The maternal parent (288LF477) originated from a cross of ‘Geo Pride’ Interspecific (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 10,386) with a proprietary interspecific parent, originating from crosses of the following species Prunus salicina, Prunus armeniaca and Prunus persica. The paternal parent (391LD449) originated as an interspecific selection from crosses of the following; ‘Modesto’ Apricot (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 2,543), proprietary plumcot (4G1180), and an apricot of unknown parentage. A large number of these first generation seedlings growing on their own root system were budded to trees of ‘Nemaguard’ Rootstock (non-patented) and under close and careful observation, one such budded tree exhibited desirable, early maturing fruit characteristics and was selected for additional asexual propagation and commercialization.
Asexual reproduction of the new and distinct variety of interspecific tree was by budding, in 1998, to ‘Nemaguard’ Rootstock (non-patented), as performed by us in our experimental orchard located near Modesto, Calif., and shows that reproductions run true to the original tree and all characteristics of the tree and its fruit are established and transmitted through succeeding asexual propagations.
The present new interspecific tree originated from crosses of the following species, (Plum×Plumcot×Peachcot×Apricot), [Prunus salicina×(Prunus salicina×Prunus armeniaca)×(Prunus persica×Prunus armeniaca)×Prunus armeniaca] is of large size, vigorous, upright growth and a regular and productive bearer of large, yellow flesh fruit with excellent flavor and eating quality. The fruit is further characterized by having firm flesh, good shipping and handling quality, being relatively uniform in size throughout the tree and maturing in the early maturity season. In comparision to the fruit of the early maturing parent ‘Red Beaut’ Plum (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 2,539), the fruit of the present variety is larger in size with heavier production and is 7 days earlier in maturity. In comparison to the fruit of the interspecfic tree ‘Geo Pride’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 10,386), the fruit of the new variety is larger in size and is approximately 50 days earlier in maturity.
The accompanying color photographic illustration shows typical specimens of the foliage and fruit of the present new interspecific variety. The illustration shows the upper and lower surface of the leaves, an exterior and sectional view of a fruit divided in its suture plane to show flesh color, pit cavity and the stone remaining in place. The photographic illustration was taken shortly after being picked (shipping ripe) and the colors are as nearly true as is reasonably possible in a color representation of this type.
