2,419 NECTARINE TREE John M. Garabedian, Fresno, Calif., assignor to Peach & Willow Farms, Fresno, Califl, a corporation of California Filed July 5, 1963, Ser. No. 293,218 1 Claim. (Cl. Plt.41)
This invention relates to a new and distinct variety of nectarine tree which is a regular and productive bearer of late ripening, large, uniform, globose, clingstone fruit; such fruit being characterized by yellow flesh having red near the stone, and by yellow skin overspread to a large extent with red which is streaked and mottled.
In comparison with the Gold King nectarine (United States Plant Patent No. 1,424), which it most nearly resembles, the fruit of the present variety is further characterized by a deeper ventral suture toward the apex, and by a later ripening period such that the harvest is approximately four weeks after said Gold King nectarine.
The herein claimed variety of nectarine tree was originated by me, under conditions of careful and continui'ng observation, in an experimental nursery at a ranch located near Fresno, county of Fresno, California; the
' original tree being one of a number of seedlings grown from a group of seeds of unknown parentage.
When such seedlings reached maturity, and the novel and distinctive characteristics of the one which is the present variety were recognized by me, I selected it for reproduction in view of its apparent commercial potential.
Thereafter, asexual reproduction of the variety was accomplished, under my control and direction, by budding on mature trees in an experimental orchard on the ranch located as aforesaid; such reproductions, in maturity, having run true to the original tree in all respects.
The drawing comprises an illustration, by photographic reproduction in color, of one fruit in elevation with leaves, and a half of another fruit cut to show the flesh and with the stone remaining in place.
Referring now more specifically to the pomological details of this new and distinct variety of nectarine tree, the following is an outline description thereof; all major color plate identifications, by comparison with fresh specimens, being by reference to Maerz and Paul Dictionary of Color, except where common terms of color definition are employed.

Know and distinct variety of nectarine tree, substantially as illustrated and described, characterized by regular and productive bearing of large, uniform, globose,
clingstone fruit having yellow flesh with red adjacent the stone, and yellow skin largely overspread with red which is streaked and mottled; and further characterized, in comparison to the Gold King nectarine, by fruit having a deeper ventral suture toward the apex, and by a harvest period about four weeks later.
