Definitions

  • the present invention embraces a new and distinct variety of peach tree which bears white fleshed, clingstone fruit having a bright red surface color which substantially overspreads a pale greenish-yellow ground color; the fruit being especially characterized by a. very early ripening period.
  • the instant variety of peach tree resulted from a cross of the Sun Grand nectarine (United States Plant Patent No. 980) xthe Robin peach (United States Plant Patent No. 529). Seeds from such cross were planted, and all of the resulting seedlings were white fleshed peaches which-in maturity--had widely varying ripening periods; one of such seedlings, and which is the variety herein described and claimed, having evidenced the earliest maturity, being approximately one week before the Mayflower peach (unpatented), and at the same time as the Springtime peach (United States Plant Patent No. 1,268).
  • the two varieties are somewhat similar in that in addition to a like ripening period, the fruit of both is generally small,
  • Fig. 1 is an elevation showing two of the fruit, together with twigs and leaves.
  • Fig. 2 is a sectional elevation of one of the fruit, with the stone exposed; such stone only partially showing through retained flesh.
  • Trunk Size-medium. Branches: Size-medium. Leaves:
  • Colon-Pale greenish yellow ground color (IO-L-l, shading to 11-B6), substantially overspread with a relatively bright red-(S-K-IO, shading to .7-L-7).
  • Type-Cling adheres to flesh over entire surface.
  • the tree and its fruit herein described may vary in slight detail due to climatic and soil conditions under which the variety may be grown.
  • a new and distinct variety of peach tree as illustrated and described, which bears white fleshed, clingstone fruit having a red surface color substantially overspreading a pale greenish-yellow ground color, and particularly characterized by an early ripening period approximately one week before the Mayflower peach, and with the Springtime peach; and further characterized-in comparison with said Springtime peach-by large showy flowers, leaves with reniform glands, and fruit which is larger, firmer, brighter red in surface color, not quite so protuberant at the apex, and less subject to defects.
