Definitions

  • the distinctive characteristic of the present variety is a ripening period which is approximately ten days earlier than the Red Grand grown under like conditions of soil and climate. Such earlier ripening period is of substantial advantage in that marketing of the generally Red Grand type of fruit can be initiated substantially earlier than at present.
  • the fruit of the present variety is distinctively characterized in addition to a ripening period which is approximately four days laterby a much more uniform ripening period, and a readily discernible much greater uniformity in the bright red overspreading color of the yellow-skinned fruit, in the smoothness of the surface thereof, and in the size of the fruit.
  • a ripening period which is approximately four days laterby a much more uniform ripening period, and a readily discernible much greater uniformity in the bright red overspreading color of the yellow-skinned fruit, in the smoothness of the surface thereof, and in the size of the fruit.
  • the drawing is an illustration, by photographic reproduction in color, of a twig with leaves, a detached leaf,
  • Plant Pat. 2,937 Patented Nov. 11, 1969 and detached fruit; one fruit being cut in half to expose the flesh, and the stone remaining in one such half.

  • the nectarine tree and its fruit herein described may vary in slight detail due to climatic and soil conditions under which the variety may be grown; the present description being of the variety as grown in the Central Valley of California.
  • a new and distinct variety of nectarine tree substantially as illustrated and described, which is generally similar in tree and fruit to the Red Grand and Early Red Grand, but is distinctively characterized, in comparison, by an intermediate ripening period which-under like conditions of soil and climate--is approximately ten days earlier than the Red Grand and approximately four days later than the Early Red Grand; and further characterized, in comparison to the Early Red Grand, by a much more uniform ripening period, and a much greater uniformity in the bright red overspreading color of the yellow-skinned fruit, in the smoothness of the skin, and in the size of the fruit.
