Definitions
- Newfane A new and distinct variety of sweet cherry tree that originated as a seedling of Prunus avium in the breeding program of Cornell University and is hereinafter referred to as ‘Newfane’ sweet cherry.
- This new variety is unique because this is the first self-fertile, yellow flesh-type, sweet cherry that has been made available to the commercial nursery industry of the United States of America; and the fruit has several traits that make if favorable for dual-purpose fresh market and processed uses.
- the new variety differs from its parents in the following. Unlike ‘Emperor Francis’ (not patented) the new variety is self fertile whereas ‘Emperor Francis’ (non patented) requires another variety as a pollen source. Unlike ‘Stella’ (non patented) the new variety is yellow fleshed with skin coloration of a red blush over yellow where “Stella” (non patented) has dark burgundy-black skin and flesh.
- FIG. 1 Illustrates the intact fruit and foliage of the new variety at maturity.
- FIG. 2 Illustrates the blossoms of the new variety.
