BY came (0W ATTORNEYS United States Patent 2,901 PEACH TREE Henry R. Spoto, Sr., 790 N. Township Road, Yuba City, Calif. 95991 Filed Dec. 15, 1967, Ser. No. 691,075 Int. Cl. A0111 5/08 US. Cl. Plt.--43
ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A peach tree which is large in size, hardy and vigorous in growth, spreading and round-topped in form, and a regular and productive bearer of large, late ripening freestone fruit having yellow flesh, and yellow skin substantially overspread with red at maturity.
Origin of the variety I planted a seed of an unknown variety of freestone peach on my ranch located near Yuba City, Sutter County, Calif., and the resultant seedlingwhich was maintained under cultivation and close observation during the period of its growth-evidenced, when it came into bearing, that it was a new and distinct variety by reason of certain characteristics as will hereinafter appear.
Asexual reproduction of the variety Upon recognition by me of the novelty of the variety, I asexually reproduced it by budding on seedlings of the Lovell peach (unpatented) in an orchard on my ranch located as aforesaid. These reproductions ran true to the original tree in all respects.
Summary of the variety The present new and distinct variety of peach tree is large in size, hardy and vigorous in growth, spreading and round-topped in form, and a regular and productive bearer of large freestone fruit having yellow flesh, and yellow skin substantially overspread with red at maturity; such fruit having firm flesh, and a late ripening period. In a normal year the fruit ripens, for harvest, about September 7th; this ripening period being a few days before the Kirkman Gem (United States Plant Patent No. 506).
Brief description of the drawing The drawing is an illustration, by photographic reproduction in color, of a twig with leaves and a fruit remaining attached; other fruit being shown detached, and one such detached fruit being cut in half to expose the flesh, and with the stone remaining in one out half.
