Definitions
- the present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of peach tree of the yellow-fleshed, semi-freestone, fruit-bearing type, which was originated by me by crossing two unnamed and unpatented peach varieties.
- the unnamed seed parent was originally derived from a cross of Lukens Honey (unpatented) July Elberta (Plant Patent No. 15), while the pollen parent was derived from a cross of the same ancestors as produced the seed parent, with a further cross thereof with Robin (Plant Patent No. 529).
- the primary objective of this breeding was to produce a very early peach variety of the yellow-fleshed fruit type. This objective was fully achieved, along with other desirable improvements, including attractive appearance and high quality of the fruit, as attained by combining the earliness factors inherent in both parents, although exhibited only in the pollen parent, with the yellow-fleshed fruit factors inherent in both parents, but exhibited only in the seed parent.
- the new Variety is particularly characterized as to novelty by the following unique combination of outstanding features which distinguish the new variety from its parents, as well as from all other varieties of which I am aware:
- a fruit-ripening habit which is generally about 3 days to one week later than that of Springtime peach in southern California and falls from about the middle to late May or early June, thus making it the earliest ripening yellow-fleshed peach ever available.
- the new variety has a maturation period averaging from about 5 to- 7 days shorter than that of Robin (also a white-fleshed peach), and a considerably lower chilling requirement than that of Robin, which results in ripening of the fruit of my new variety from about 2 to 3 weeks earlier than Robin in southern California.
- the fruit of the new variety averages somewhat smaller in size than that of Blazing Gold (Plant Patent No. 1,127), but has a shorter maturation period of about 5 to 10 days, and a lower chilling requirement, resulting in ripening of the fruit of the new variety from 2 to 3 weeks earlier than that of Blazing Gold in southern California.
- Fruit Ripening dates Generally ripens from about 3 days to one week after Springtime peach at Ontario, California, and usually from the middle to late May or early June; over a prolonged period of observations, the dates of first ripening ranged from May 13th to June 8th.
- Axial diameter Frorn 2% inches to 2% inches. Transverse diameter in suture plane.From 2% inches to 2% inches. Transverse diameter at right angles to suture plane.
- Ventral surface Generally rounded, and sometimes slightly lipped toward apex on one side.
- Stem cavity Rounded, but elongated slightly in suture plane, with suture showing on one side.
- Apex Generally short and sometimes rounded, though prolonged in some seasons; pistil point from short to absent and apical.
- Stem Medium caliper; glabrous; medium adherence to stone. Length---from inch to /2 inch.
- T enacily of fleslz.Semi-free; generally adheres to flesh at least along ventral edge, and often retains short, fiberlike threads.
- Ventral edge-Medium thickness with wing generally throughout.
