Definitions
- the variety was originated by me, in my experimental orchard located near Merced, California, during a long term plant breeding project--spanning approximately ten years-which object was the origination of fruit trees, including nectarine trees, of such small or dwarf size that-in addition to ornamental va-luepruning, thinning, and harvesting operations could be conducted without the use of ladders and by a person standing on the ground adjacent the tree.
- the Flory dwarf peach (unpatented) was crossed with the late Le Grand nectarine (United States Plant Patent No. 1,035), and the resultant seed all produced normal size peach trees which bore white fleshed peach fruit. In turn, seed from such trees produced about seventy-five percent normal size trees and twenty-five percent dwarf trees; some being peach trees and others nectarine trees. of these last mentioned peach and nectarine trees, both those of normal and dwarf size, approximately threefourths bore white fleshed fruit while the remaining onefourth bore yellow fleshed fruit.
- the present variety is a selection of one of such dwarf nectarine trees whose fruit was yellow fleshed; the variety having been selected by me-for subsequent reproduction-upon the recognition of its commercial potential as a combination ornamental and fruit tree.
- FIG. 1 is an elevation showing one of the fruits, together with twigs and leaves.
- FIG. 2 is a sectional elevation of one of the fruits, with the stone remaining in place.
- the tree and its fruit herein described may vary in slight detail due to climatic and soil conditions under which this variety may be grown; the present description being of the variety as grown in the Central Valley of California.
- a new and distinct variety of nectarine tree as illustrated and described, characterized by its dwarf size, averaging six to eight feet in height; and further characterized by the productive bearing of large size, yellow fleshed freestone fruit having yellow skin partially mottled with orange red.
