Description
A ril 23, 1968 M. A. LOGAN PEACH TREE Filed Dec.
Plant Pat. 2,803
INVENTOR Mabel A. Logan BY 02W a jeafiz- United States Patent 2,808 PEACH TREE Mabel A. Logan, Rte. 2, Box 1269, Grass Valley, Calif. 95945 Filed Dec. 16, 1966, Ser. No. 602,431 1 Claim. (Cl. Plt.-42)
This discovery relates to a new and distinct variety of peach tree which is a regular and very productive bearer of large, globose, freestone fruit having white flesh streaked and flecked with red, and light yellow skin overspread to a substantial extent with red which is partially streaked and mottled.
The fruit of the present variety provides an excellent, late mid-season white-fleshed peach of good eating quality and a delicious flavor; a characteristic feature being a ripening period of the fruit about four to five weeks later than the Nectar (unpatented) and which the present variety somewhat resembles.
The herein claimed variety of peach tree was discovered by me growing as a chance seedling in the yard of my residence located in the Cedar Ridge area near Grass Valley, Nevada County, Calif. When such chance seedling, which was maintained under care, began to bear fruit I recognizedupon close and continuing observation that such seedling was quite different in comparison to another peach varieties, both in the character and quality of the fruit and the ripening period.
Subsequent to recognition by me that the variety was novel and distinct, such variety was asexually reproducedupon my order and on my behalf-by a commercial nursery at its Mt. Pleasant growing grounds located near Lincoln, Placer County, Calif.; such asexual reproduction having been accomplished by budding onto Lovell (unpatented) roostock. All of such asexual reproductions were found to run true to the original tree in all respects.
The drawing is an illustration, by photographic reproduction in color, of a twig with leaves, two whole fruit, and another fruit cut in half to expose the flesh and with the stone remaining in one half.
Referring now more specifically to the pomological details of this new and distinct variety of peach 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.
