Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of nectarine of unusual eating quality in both the fresh and dried state.
  • This nectarine is one of many arising from crosses between the J. H. Hale peach and Lippiat nectarine, the object being to obtain larger and better shipping varieties. Older yellow fleshed varieties such as Boston, Humboldt, Lippiat, Pitmaston Orange and Hunter were too soft in flesh and too small to ever attain any commercial importance in California. This variety was one of a large number of nectarine seedlings of the sec nd generation of this cross and has been firm and large enough for profitable long distance commercial shipments.
  • this variety is about two weeks earlier, is larger and a much heavier producer. probably because it has reniform glands giving off a secretion that causes excess moisture to shed rapidly and allowing less time for the spores of shot-hole fungus and mildew to germinate, while the Lippiat having eglandular leaves is extremely susceptible to these diseases. This variety is much less afiected by delayed dormancy also.
  • Leaves.Length varies from 6 to '7 inches and 1% to 17 inches in width. Large. Acutely pointed. Thick. Smooth and rather light green, resembling J. H. Hale. Margin-crenate. PetioZe--medium in both length and thickness. Glands-average number is four, reniform in shape, usuall two on the petiole and two or three on the margin of the blade. No stipules.
