Definitions

  • This invention relates to a novel variety of nectarine tree which bears large, yellow fleshed, clingstone fruit; the variety being generally similar-in tree and fruit characteristicsto the Late Le Grand nectarine (United States Plant Patent No. 1,035), but is markedly distinctive, in comparison to the latter, by reason of a substantially later ripening period.
  • the fruit of the present variety ripens approximately two or three weeks later'than such Late Le Grand nectarine, and thus extends the harvest season of Le Grand type nectarines well into September, after a first picking which usually begins at the end of the first week or early in the second week of such month when the variety is grown in the central valley of California,
  • the primary object of this invention namely, the attainment of at Le Grand type nectarine having a relatively late ripening period, and which advantageously extends the harvest season of this class of fruit-was accomplished upon the origination by me, in my experimental orchard located as aforesaid, of the present variety in the following manner:
  • the variety is a seedling of the Late Le Grand nectarine X an unnamed and unpatented peach seedling from the Le Grand nectarine (United States Plant Patent No. 549) which I previously originated.
  • Such unnamed seedling is known to me, and identified in my records, as the 1K45a peach; the latter bearing very large, late ripening fruit.
  • Flowers of the Late Le Grand nectarine wereunder conditions of control-fertilized by pollen from the above unnamed peach seedling, and the herein claimed variety of nectarine resulted from such cross.
  • Fig. 1 is an elevation showing one of the nectarines, together with twigs and leaves.
  • Fig. 2 is a sectional elevation of one of the nectarines; the view showing adherent flesh on the clingstone, which remains in place.
  • Form-Uniform Form-Uniform; symmetrical; globose to oblong.
  • Type.-Cling adheres to flesh over entire surface along both dorsal and ventral edges.
  • a new and distinct variety of nectarine tree as lllus- 10 trated and described, bearing general resemblance in tree and fruit characteristics to theLate Le Grand nectarine, being characterized-in comparison theret0,-by ripening two to three weeks later, the first picking normally beginning at the end of the first Week or early in the second week of the month of September when grown in the central valley of California.
