Abstract
A grapevine, of the Thompson Seedless class and adapted for like uses, which is of medium vigor, medium in trunk size, foliated with medium size cordate leaves having five lobes, blooming mid-season with fertile flowers, and productive to medium productive on medium length, straight canes of early ripening, medium size, single-shouldered, tapering clusters of seedless berries having excellent keeping quality and very good shipping quality.
Description
Over a substantial number of years I have engaged in an extensive and continuing plant breeding program at my experimental nursery and orchard located near Le Grand, Merced County, Calif.; one purpose of such program being to provide improved varieties of fruit, including grapevines. The present variety of grapevine resulted from my endeavors in the conduct of such plant breeding program.
The present variety of grapevine was originated by me, in my experimental nursery and orchard located as aforesaid, as a cross of Red Malaga (unpatented) as the seed parent, and the Thompson Seedless (unpatented) as the pollen parent. In maturity, such cross evidenced certain novel and distinctive characteristics desirable for a commercially grown grapevine, and I, therefore, undertook asexual reproduction of it preparatory to introduction to the trade.
Subsequent to origination and selection by me of the present variety of grapevine, in the manner above described, I asexually reproduced it by cuttings and grafting, and -- in maturity -- such reproductions ran true to the original grapevine in all respects.
The present variety of grapevine, of the Thompson Seedless class and adapted for like uses, is of medium vigor, medium in trunk size, foliated with medium size cordate leaves having five lobes, blooming mid-season with fertile flowers, and productive to medium productive on medium length, straight canes of early ripening, medium size, single-shouldered, tapering clusters of seedless berries having excellent keeping quality and very good shipping quality; the variety, in comparison to the Thompson Seedless resembles the same in most respects, but ripens about 2 weeks earlier, and, in comparison to the Perlette (unpatented), has larger and more open clusters with more uniform size of the berries, and ripens about 1 week earlier.
The drawing is an illustration, by photographic reproduction in color, of leaves, a cluster of berries, and separate berries, one of the latter being cut into halves to expose the flesh.
The botanical details of this new and distinct variety of grapevine -- with color definitions (except those in common color terms) referenced to Maerz and Paul Dictionary of Color -- are as follows:

1. A new and distinct variety of grapevine, of the Thompson Seedless class, substantially as illustrated and described, which is of medium vigor, medium in trunk size, foliated with medium size cordate leaves having five lobes, blooming mid-season with fertile flowers, and productive to medium productive on medium length, straight canes of early ripening, medium size, single-shouldered, tapering clusters of seedless berries having excellent keeping quality and very good shipping quality; the variety, in comparison to the Thompson Seedless resembles the same in most respects, but ripens about 2 weeks earlier, and, in comparison to the Perlette, has larger and more open clusters with more uniform size of the berries, and ripens about 1 week earlier.
