  • NEOTARINE TREE Filed Sept. 23, 1974 United States Patent Plant Pat. 3,759 Patented Aug. 5, 1975 3,759 NECTAIZINE TREE Frederic W. Anderson, Merced, Califi, assignor to The Burchell Nursery, Inc, Modesto, Calif. Filed Sept. 23, I974, Ser. No. 508,701 Int. Cl. Alllh 5 03 US. Cl.
  • the present variety of nectarine tree was originated by me, in my experimental nursery located as aforesaid, as a cross between the Red Free nectarine (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 3,328) as the seed parent, and the Autumn Gold nectarine (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 3,478) as the pollen parent. Seedlings resulting from such cross were grown by me under conditions of careful and continuing observation, and onewhich is the present varietyevidenced substantial novelty and was, therefore, selected for asex ual reproduction and in contemplation of ultimate commercialization.
  • the present variety of nectarine tree is vigorous, upright to spreading, open, foliated with medium size, lanceolate leaves with a crenate margin, and a very productive bearer of uniform, symmetrical, globose, medium size, freestone fruit having yellow skin substantially overspread with red partially mottled and streaked, yellow tflesh, and a red pit cavity with the red streaked into the flesh;
  • the variety which in general resembles the Red Free nectarine, the seed parent, is characterized, in comparison, by ripening about three Weeks later, thus desirably extending the harvest season for such type of freestone nectarine.
  • the drawing is an illustration, by photographic reproduction in color, of a twig with leaves, and separate fruit; one of the latter being cut into halves to expose the flesh, and with the stone remaining in one 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 deseription 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 vigorous, upright to spreading, open, foliated with medium size, lanceolate leaves with a crenate margin, and a very productive bearer of uniform, symmetrical, globose medium size, freestone fruit having yellow skin substantially overspread with red partially mottled and streaked, yellow flesh, and a red pit cavity with the red streaked into the flesh;
  • the variety which in general resembles the Red Free nectarine, the seed parent, is characterized, in comparison, by ripening about three weeks later, thus desirably extending the harvest season for such type of freestone nectarine.
