  • the fruit of the present variety of peach tree is of good market quality, ripens evenly, keeps and ships well, and does not oxidize or turn brown when cut and held under refrigeration; the yellow flesh being firm but melting, and of fine uniform texture.
  • the present variety originated as a bud mutation of the Coronet (unpatented), and in general the tree and fruit of the present variety bear close resemblance thereto; the primary distinctive characteristic being in the comparative ripening periods of the yellow flesh fruit. More particularly, the fruit of the present variety of peach tree ripens approximately eight days earlier than the Coronet, and which is of commercial advantage.
  • peach tree was discovered by me as a bud mutation on a mature Coronet tree in an orchard on my farm located near Bakersfield, California. After discovery of such bud mutation, and recognition by me of its distinctive characteristics, I asexually reproduced the variety by grafting onto several mature orchard trees on my farm located as aforesaid, and in maturity such reproductions were found to run true in all respects. Subsequent asexual reproductions, by budding, conducted on my behalf by a commercial nursery, have also run true.

  • a new and distinct variety of peach tree as illustrated and described, which is vigorous, and productive of medium size yellow flesh fruit having a yellow skin overspread to a substantial extent with a red blush, the stone being semi-free when the fruit is hard-ripe, and free when full-ripe; the variety being characterizedin comparison to the Coronet-by general resemblance in tree and fruit but primarily distinctive in the comparative ripening periods, the fruit ripening approximately eight days earlier than said Coronet.
