Definitions
- the primary object of this invention was to produce a variety of peach tree adapted for growth in central Florida where the January mean temperature ranges from 58 to 62 degrees Fahrenheit and where only about 200 hours of below 45 F. occurs during the trees dormant season. This chilling requirement of 200 hours below 45 F. is slightly below that of Flordasun (unpatented) introduced by the Florida Agricultural Experiment Station.
- the peach tree of this invention was originated in the Ocala region of Florida in the following manner.
- An unnamed seedling selection was obtained from south Georgia and cross by Jewel (unpatented, an old Florida peach of the Chinese honey type), seeds from this hybrid were planted and grown to maturity, seeds were obtained from the best of this lot of seedlings and another generation grown to maturity.
- In the third generation pollen from a seedling selection of progeny was used for hybridization on L8ll2 an unpatented breeding line (Southland Hawaiian F-2) obtained from the Florida Agricultural Experiment Station. This hybrid fruited in 1963 and trees were budded from it. The fruit and tree characteristics proved to be identical to that of the hybrid tree which fruited in 1963.
- the important bred peach tree are as follows:
- the accompanying color drawing shows leaf and fruit characteristics of the peach of this invention, the fruit being at shipping ripe stage.
- a fruit of the subject variety is shown divided at the suture plane to show flesh color and the characteristics of the pit.
- TREE Size Medium large. Shape: Dense and upright, base formed by pruning.
- LEAVES Size 5 to 7 inches long; 1 to 1% inches wide on midsheet leaves.
- Petiole to /2 inch long on mid-sheet leaves moderately thick.
- Glands 2 to 6, average 4, large reniform type, greenish with few reddish on older leaves.
- FRUIT Ripening period Early, ripens in about 97 days from date of'bloom, picking date about May 7-12 in central Florida.
- Stem Short length A to 7 inch, diameter inch.
- C0l0r.-Near moderate orange yellow (Plate 10YR 8/ 10) very little red near pit, flecks of red halfway between pit and outer surface at shipping stage, at ripe stage these flecks of red become very pronounced and change to solid streaks of red.
