Definitions
- the present invention relates to a peach tree and more particularly to a new and distinct variety thereof broadly characterized by its large tree producing heavy yields of large fruit with highly colored skin and firm flesh to make it well adapted for shipping long distances and with flesh that is completely free from the stone, and with buttery textured flesh and with clear yellow color throughout except for a clear separation of red color near the stone, and therefore showing excellent quality for freezing purposes.
- the instant variety is most nearly like Parade (U.S. Plant Patent No. 2,153) but is an improvement thereon in that the tree produces heavier yields of larger sized fruit that is better adapted for freezing because of it cleared yellow flesh and its confinement of the red to the area around the stone and its buttery textured flesh.
- the accompanying drawing is an oil painting of a characteristic twig of the subject peach tree bearing foliage and a mature fruit, and additionally, showing a fruit of the subject variety divided on its suture plane to reveal flesh coloration and stone characteristics.
- Trunk Medium in dimensions, gray color.
- Branches Medium in dimensions, gray on the older limbs, brown on the younger limbs, lenticels numerous and medium to large in size.
- Leaves Generally large, 4 /2 to 7 /2 inches long, 1% to 2 inches in Width, lanceolate tip acuminate, medium thick, moderately crinkled, color dark to medium green 32-L-12 to 31-A-11 on the upper surface, light green l9J-5 on the under surface; margins, crenate; petiole medium length, medium slender, deciduous.
- Glands Reniform, opposite, large, two to seven in number, at base of leaf and on petiole.
- FLOWER BUDS Medium size, plump, round, free, pubescent.
- FLOWERS Medium to late in season, in 1968, an early blooming season, first blooms February 28, full bloom March 7; small in size pink, pollen abundant.
- FRUIT Stem Length average inch, diameter average A; inch,
- Flesh Color light yellow undertone l0-K-l to darker overtones 10-Lfi7 and showing a bright red 6L6 near the stone, Amygdalin, moderate; juice, moderate; texture, meaty and buttering; fiber, few, fine, tender; ripens, evenly; flavor, distinct and pleasant; aroma, mild; eating quality, good.
- Stone Adheres to flesh. Completely free when firm ripe or soft ripe.
- Size Medium size, length 1 to 1% inches, breadth generally about one inch, thickness /8 to 1 inch.
- Apex Acuminate with a notch /2 to inch long on the dorsal side of the apex on most stones.
- Ventral ridge Thick, With many small furrows and ridges.
- Dorsal edge Usually one deep furrow with ridges on both sides, usually discontinuous at apex.
- Color Shades of brown, 15Ll2 to 48-L-12.
- a new and distinct variety of peach tree substantially as illustrated and described and which is characterized by a large tree producing heavy yields of large fruit with highly colored skin and firm flesh to make it a good shipping peach for long distance shipment, and with flesh that is completely free from the stone and has buttery texture with clear yellow color throughout except for a clear separation of bright red color near the stone, thus possessing excellent quality for freezing purposes, and most nearly resembling the Parade (U.S. Plant Patent No. 2,153) but distinguished therefrom in producing heavier yields of larger size fruit which is better adapted for freezing because of its clear yellow colored and buttery textured flesh and its confinement of the red colored area around the stone to close proximity with the stone.
