Definitions
- the present invention relates to a plum tree, designated varietally as "Scarlet Sun” and which is somewhat similar to the Roysum Plum Tree (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 2,619), from which it was derived as a sport, but from which it is distinguished by producing very large, bright red plums having a harvest date of approximately August 20 at Del Rey, Calif., and has pleasant tasting, moderate orange-yellow colored flesh and which further exhibits excellent cold storage and handling characteristics.
- test seedlings were thereafter observed and the first fruit of the subject variety was harvested in 1979.
- the applicant noted at the time that the test seedlings produced plums which were of a unique color and of a harvest date expected to be advantageous to his employer. As a consequence, more budwood was collected from these test trees for further asexual reproduction.
- the accompanying drawing is a color photograph of a characteristic twig bearing typical leaves, several plums showing their external coloration sufficiently matured for harvesting and shipment, and a plum halved transversely of the suture plane to illustrate the flesh coloration, and stone characteristics.
- Vigor Vigorous.
- Regularity of bearing Good, provided that the trees selected to aid in pollination are appropriate.
- Texture The same surface texture as the trunk.
- Lenticels size.--Average in length, approximately 1/8 inch (3.175 mm.).
- Lenticels color.--Light Brown, (76 L. Y. Br.).
- Width approximately 11/2 to 2 inches, (38.1 through 50.8 mm.).
- Petiole length.--Approximately 11/16 inch, (17.462 mm.).
- Petiole thickness.--Approximately 1/16 inch, (1.588 mm.).
- Petiole.--Length approximately 3/16 inch, (4.762 mm.).
- Petiole.--Length approximately 3/8 inch, (9.525 mm.).
- Axial diameter --Approximately 2-5/16 inches to 25/8 inches, (58.738 through 66.675 mm.).
- Diameter transverse in the suture plane --Approximately 2-1/16 inches to 21/2 inches, (52.388 through 63.5 mm.).
- Diameter transverse in the cheek plane --Approximately 2-5/16 inches to 25/8 inches (58.738 through 66.675 mm.).
- Ventral surfaces Rounded, with a blunt apex.
- Shape.--Round very slightly elongated; approximately 1/8 inch to 3/16 inch deep, (approximately 3.175 through 4.762 mm.).
- Base Medium in width, and flat.
- Pistil point Quite blunt.
- Thickness --Approximately 1/16 inch, (1.588 mm.).
- Thickness approximately the same as other plum varieties, approximately 1/64 inch or less, (0.397 mm.).
- Base.--Small there appears to be a flat area at the base.
- 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.
