Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a nectarine tree and more particularly to a new and distinct variety thereof broadly characterized by its substantially upright, spreading form; vigorous and regular bearing; early bloom; and the production of early ripening, highly colored, freestone, firmly textured, yellow-fleshed fruit having yellow, red-blushed skin.
  • Thes instant variety nectarine tree blooms relatively early as compared with most other early nectarine varieties, approximately seven days earlier than the Regular Le Grand (unpatented) nectarine tree which it most nearly resembles.
  • the fruit of the new variety distinguishes from the Regular Le Grand by ripening somewhat earlier and having a more intense, highly colored skin.
  • the fruit of the subject variety is also larger, more nearly spherical, and the flesh is much firmer and more highly colored than the fruit of the Regular Le Grand.
  • the flavor of the fruit of the new variety is somewhat similar to the fruit of the Elberta (unpatented) peach tree. 7
  • the seedling was asexually reproduced in 1966 by fall dormant budding of scions therefrom on a number of Nemaguard (unpatented) rootstocks in an orchard at my No. 41 ranch on the northeast corner between Road 41 and Avenue 12 in Madera County, Calif.
  • the trees resulting from the budded rootstock fruited in July 1968 and the fruit and tree characteristics thereof proved identical to those of the original seedling tree.
  • the accompanying drawing is a dye transfer color print of a photograph showing the leaves and several mature fruit of the subject variety with one of the fruit divided in a plane right-angularly related to its suture plane to reveal flesh coloration and pit characteristics.
  • Size Medium, substantially upright but spreading and open with density determnied by pruning methods; hardy, very productive and regular bearer.
  • Form Generally uniform, somewhat unsymmetrical, substantially globose in the plane right-angularly disposed from the suture plane.
  • Ventral surface Slightly rounded and lipped from base to apex on one side.
  • Skin Thick, tough, tenacious to flesh.
  • a new and distinct variety of nectarine tree substantially as illustrated and described which is characterized by its vigorous growth; and its regular and heavy bearing of brilliantly colored fruit which is somewhat larger than the fruit of the Regular Le Grand nectraine tree (unpatented), which it most nearly resembles, but from which it is distinguished in that its fruit ripens somewhat earlier than the Le Grand and has a more intense highly colored skin and flesh which is more nearly similar to the flesh of the fruit of the Elberta peach tree (unpatented).
