Abstract
A new and distinct Apple Tree named ‘Mayo’ characterized particularly by a combination of great scab and cedar apple rust resistance, greater hardiness, its fruit having a white, crisp flesh, its sweetness in taste and goodness for eating, uniquely balanced with a dry bittersharp quality which makes it particularly suitable for blending purposes in the production of hard apple cider.
Description
Not Applicable.
Not Applicable.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of Malus domestica, an apple tree, discovered as a chance seedling, which we refer to as an Apple Tree named ‘Mayo’. The apple tree is a deciduous tree of the rose family known for its pomaceous fruit. Applicant's new cultivar bears fruit annually.
The inventors have been growing apple trees in Franklin, Vt. since 1996. In 2008, they, by chance, observed a seedling of unknown parentage from which they obtained buds used to reproduce their Apple Tree named ‘Mayo’.
Asexual reproduction by budding trees using buds obtained from the seedling discovered in 2008. The tree was asexually propagated on the site location and observed. Further reproduction using scion wood provided was asexually reproduced by Stark Bro's Nurseries & Orchards co. at their facilities in Louisiana, Mo.
The new ‘Mayo’ cultivar differs from parents and related cultivars in that it is characterized by a combination of greater scab and cedar apple rust resistance, greater hardiness, a distinct white, crisp flesh, and increased sweetness, uniquely balanced with a dry bittersharp quality that makes it desirable for blending in the production of hard apple cider.
The tree and its fruit were observed for a period of time and are believed to be particularly useful anywhere apple trees are raised; for example, in fruit tree orchards, field nurseries, or in a landscape setting, and more particularly in these settings throughout the United States. The fruit produced by the new cultivar is a superior cider apple classified as a “bittersharp” apple having a high sugar content and a low pH. Extensive testing and evaluation of the fruit has found its juice to be excellent when used for blending purposes in the production of hard cider, with the juice from the apple fruit valued for its superior astringency (dryness).
Malus domestica and related varieties are disclosed in a number of plant patents. With respect to varieties in which the fruit may be used in making cider, these include: U.S. Plant Pat. No. 18,485 for a non-browning apple cultivar named ‘SJCA38R6A74’; U.S. Plant Pat. No. 12,863 for a Mackintosh apple variety named Mariela; and U.S. Plant Pat. No. 7,209 for an apple tree: Keystone. Other representative apple trees include U.S. Plant Pat. No. 7,197 for an apple tree cultivar: ‘Honeycrisp’.
The disclosed and claimed apple tree is a new distinct cultivar which annually produces fruit that is normally ripe for harvesting and shipping on or about October 5th under the ecological and climatological conditions prevailing around approximately 45° north latitude in the Franklin, Vt. area of New England. The fruit is most notable for its use as a blend for making hard cider as documented by cider producers, commercial nurseries, and lab testing.
The present variety produces a medium sized pome. The fruit is typically red and carmine over yellow in color when ripe. The flesh of the fruit is white when the fruit is ripe.
The accompanying photographs depict the color of the tree and foliage of our new variety as nearly as is reasonably possible to make the same in a color illustration of this character.
The following is a detailed description of our new ‘Mayo’ cultivar with color terminology in accordance with The Royal Horticultural Society (R.H.S.) Colour Chart except where the context indicates a term having its ordinary dictionary meaning. Our new tree has not been observed under all growing conditions and variations may occur as a result of different growing conditions. All progeny of our new ‘Mayo’ cultivar, insofar as have been observed, have been identical in all the characteristics described below.
Other than as set forth below, as of this time, no other characteristics of our new Apple Tree have been observed by the inventors which are different from the characteristics common to apple trees.
- Parentage: A true chance seedling first observed in 2008. Using buds from that mutation, additional trees were budded.
- Locality where grown and observed: Franklin, Vt. It is believed that the apple tree observed for the detailed botanical description below is estimated to be at least sixty years old. The ‘Mayo’ cultivar was grown on Bud. 118 rootstock at the original site location for observation, in which the following observations were made.
