Abstract
A new and distinct variety of apple tree known as Loriglo as shown and described being characterized particularly as to novelty by fruit maturing about two weeks before the Red Delicious with a very attractive appearance not quite so intensely red as the Red Delicious.
Description
The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of apple tree discovered as a limb sport of a Jonathan apple tree.
The new sport was asexually reproduced by top-working by grafting the new variety. When the top-worked trees came into bearing, it was positively observed that the fruit unmistakably resembled the fruit of the original sport. The fruit matures about two weeks before the Red Delicious, and when mature, it has a very attractive appearance and spicy delicious flavor with color not quite so intense as the Red Delicious.
The tree was found as a bud sport on a Jonathan Tree growing in a cultivated orchard with mostly Red Delicious Trees. The limb sport differed from the remainder of the tree by a slight difference in color of the leaves and a difference in the color and flavor of the fruit in that it was generally bright red in comparision to a darker duller color of the Jonathan and more delicious than the fruit of the parent tree. The bearing habit of the tree is regular and the growth habit is not spur type and the pollination is self-pollinating. The blossoms are larger and white compared to a smaller pink blossom of the Jonathan. The Loriglo apple of the present tree is more conical than the Jonathan which is a flat apple.
Loriglo has a much better flavor than Jonared. The color pattern is different and more attractive in that it is a brighter red and the blush fades into the ground color making it an attractive yellow with hints of pink. The Loriglo does not resemble Jonared, Blackjon and Jonnee having different color patterns and flavor. Blackjon and Jonnee resemble Jonared but not Loriglo.
The tree was grown and observed at Whitesville, Ky. The date of the first picking was August 25th and the last picking was September 8th, ripening about two weeks earlier than the Red Delicious.
