Definitions
- the present invention relates to a peach tree and more particularly to a new and distinct variety thereof broadly characterized by its vigorous, regular bearing tree, and its very early ripening fruit which is highly colored with red over half or more of its surface, round shaped, relatively large for its season and has very few split pits.
- the instant variety most nearly resembles Bonjour (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 2,694) but is an improvement thereon in that it bears fruit which is two to five days earlier and more round in shape.
- the accompanying drawing is an oil painting of a characteristic whole fruit of the subject peach tree showing the shape and skin color, and of a characteristic fruit divided at its suture plane showing the flesh color.
- Trunk Medium size; shaggy gray.
- Branches Medium slender; gray on older branches and brown on younger branches.
- Lenticels Medium size; numerous.
- Leaves Location, from center portion of terminal shoots 30 to 36 inches long; medium size, 4 to 7 inches long, to 1 /2 inches wide; lanceolate; tip, accuminate; medium thick; width-length ratio 5 or 6 to 1; class (Meador and Black: Proceedings of the American Society for Horticultural Science, vol. 37, p. 206) 2 and 3; margin crenate; glandular; petiole, medium size; glands, reniform, located at base of leaf and on periole, one to five in number; stipules on young leaves, falling off early; color, upper surface dark green, lower surface light green, veins, very light yellowish green.
- FLOWER BUDS Medium size; plump; free; pubescent.
- FRUIT Maturity Firm to nearing soft ripe
- Shape Variable; generally globose on mature fruit; oval on immature fruit; compressed right angle to suture plane on very ripe fruit.
- Suture A distinct depression which extends from base to near apex but discontinues at apex and has slight depression beyond pistil point.
- Cavity Medium abrupt; elongated in suture plane and showing on both sides; depth to /2 inch; breadth /2 to inch; yellow ground color with red blush when exposed to the sun.
- Base Rounded to retuse.
- Skin Medium thick; medium tough; sweet; tenacious to flesh; under color yellow 9-L-1 with red blush from light red l-C-ll to darker red blush 6-L-6 with lighter red stripes l-K-ll; pubescence, scant.
- Flesh Color, very light yellow 9-1-1 near stone to light yellow 9-K-5 nearer skin; amygdalin, moderate; juice moderate, rich; texture, generally meaty to melting when soft ripe; fibers, moderate in amount, fine, tender; ripens evenly; flavor, subacid delicate; firmness, when shipping ripe very firm, when soft ripe melting to slightly firmer near stone; good eating quality.
- STONE Generally: Clings to flesh except when fruit is ripened 0E of the tree, then flesh is free in part from the stone. Size: Medium to small; 1% to 1 /2 inches long; A to 1 inch wide; to inch thick.
- Ventral edge Thick with many fine furrows and with deep groove on each side.
- Dorsal edge Deep groove extending from base half way more or less to apex.
- a new and distinct variety of peach substantially as illustrated and described, which is characterized by a regular bearing tree of good vigor, and very early ripening fruit having high color, large size for its season, round shape and few split pits; and which most closely re- 4 Sils Bonjour (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 2,694) but is distinguished therefrom primarily by the characteristic of bearing fruit two to five days earlier which is more round in shape.
