Definitions
- the present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of plum tree, which has been denominated varietally as "Anna Sun”, and which is broadly similar to the Kelsey Plum Tree (unpatented), with which it is most similar in appearance, but from which it is distinguished in being ready for harvest about 3 weeks later than in the Kelsey Plum Tree, and by producing a fruit which has a Medium Green skin color with a Yellow-colored flesh.
- the applicant in an effort to upgrade the fruit products of his employer, has germinated thousands of plum seeds of random parentage, grown the resultant seedlings to maturity and carefully studied the characteristics of the progeny in an effort to discover new and superior varieties of plums.
- the subject variety was discovered as a result of this procedure.
- the seedling of the present variety was the offspring of unknown parents, and was produced from a mixed lot of seeds which were procured from the H. P. Metzler & Sons Ranch No. 5, located in Del Rey, Calif.
- the mixed lot of seeds which were produced from Ranch No. 5 were planted in the H. P. Metzler & Sons nursery, located at the aforementioned ranch, during the winter of 1979 and 1980.
- the seedling of the instant variety first produced fruit in 1982.
- the special qualities of the subject variety were detected and appreciated in 1982 because the fruit that was produced by the seedling had a Green skin color. This was particularly unique in that the seeds which were procured from Collins No. 5 came from plum trees which produced either black or dark red plums.
- Vigor Vigorous.
- Length Approximately 21/2 inches to 23/4 inches, (63.5 mm through 69.85 mm).
- Width Approximately 13/4 inches to 2 inches, (44.45 mm through 50.8 mm).
- Thickness --Approximately 1/16 inch (1.588 mm).
- Petiole. approximately 1/8 inch, (3.175 mm), at the time prior to the appearance of any white in the flower bud.
- Shape --Small and round, at the time prior to the appearance of any color in the bud.
- Diameter transverse in suture plane --23/8 inches through 21/2 inches (60.325 mm through 63.50 mm).
- Length of suture --Approximately 31/2 inches (88.9 mm); the suture extends from the base to the apex.
- Stem cavity.--Shape rounded, approximately 1/8 inch to 3/16 inch deep, (3.175 mm through 4.762 mm).
- Width --Approximately 1/16 inch, (1.588 mm).
- Self-pollinating --At the present time, the new variety appears to be self-pollinating, and may have the ability to aid other plum trees to produce a crop.
- plum tree possesses the described characteristics as a result of the growing conditions in Del Rey, Calif., in the central part of the San Joaquin Valley, it is to be understood that variations of the usual magnitude in characteristics incident to growing conditions, fertilization, pruning and pest control are to be expected.
