Definitions
- the present invention relates to a peach tree and more particularly to a new and distinct variety thereof broadly characterized by a vigorous tree regularly bearing fruit having a brilliant red color over 50 to 75 percent of its skin surface upon an under color of bright yellow when mature, which remains firm and retains its full color on the tree, thus enabling the fruit to be picked in one picking.
- the instant variety most nearly resembles its parent plant, Franciscan (U.S. Plant Patent No. 2,239) but is distinguished therefrom by the characteristics of ripening about ten days later and holding its firmness longer than the parent variety and by brighter yellow under color with brighter red blush, and by being completely free from the stone when ripe.
- the instant variety has been asexually reproduced by grafting test trees in test plots in Tulare and Fresno Counties, Calif.
- the resulting trees, fruit, leaves and blossoms were exactly the same as the original fruit and tree (E12-3NW) in each case.
- the accompanying drawing is an oil painting of a characteristic mature fruit of the subject variety showing the shape and skin color, and by means of a fruit divided on its suture, showing the characteristic flesh color, when fresh, and the shape and color of the stone.
- Tree Size Large vigorous. Trunk: Shaggy; color, gray. Branches: Main branches, shaggy, gray color; younger branches, brown, not shaggy. Lenticels: Medium in size, numerous. Twigs: Long with long internodes; green to red-brown in color; smooth. Productivity: Moderate to heavy bearer, regular producer.
- Leaves (Selected from mid-portion of new growth when 18 to 24 inches in length) Shape: Lanceolate, tip accuminate.
- Size Length 6 to 7 inches for the largest and 2 /2 to 3 /2 inches for the smallest, width 1 /2 to 1% inches for the largest to to 4: inches for the smallest; medium thick.
- Petiole Medium size, generally about to /1 inch long. Character: Deciduous.
- Glands Reniform, on petiole and lower parts of leaf. Stipules: Present on young leaves, dropping off early.
- Shape Generally round to slightly heart shaped.
- Dorsal surface Rounded, slight depression at pistil point. Cavity: Medium size, medium abrupt, elongated in suture plane; depth /s to /2 inch, breadth to inch.
- Pistil point Apical, very short to depressed.
- Flesh Color Uniform Apricot yellow 9-K-5 with Cardinal red 5-L-6 near stone.
- Texture Meaty when firm, soft to meaty when soft.
- Fibers Fine, moderate.
- Flavor Delicate.
- Vengal edge Usually thick with fine furrows, but vari- Color: When fresh, from Raw Sienna 13-L-l0 to dark brown 48 L-1.
