Definitions
- the present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of apple tree which I call "Keystone".
- I first observed my new variety of apple tree fruiting in a block of Red King Delicious apple trees in about the fall of 1976. This tree was growing in a cultivated area of the Keystone Collins, an orchard in Riverside, Wash. My new variety of apple tree appeared to have grown from the seedling understock of a mechanically damaged tree. My Keystone cultivar thus appears to be a chance seedling and is of an unknown parentage.
- the following comparison chart shows how my new variety of apple tree differs from certain other varieties of apple trees which have generally yellow fruit:
- the description of the skin refers to the skin russet, on a scale of from 0 to 5, with 0 being smooth and 5 being full russet.
- the term “bumps” in the table refers to the points at the basal end of the fruit with “P” standing for prominent and “NP” standing for not prominent.
- P standing for prominent
- NP standing for not prominent.
- color 1 refers to yellow
- 2 refers to white (between yellow and green)
- 3 refers to green.
- Dates of first and last picking Picked immediately after Red Delicious apples which is usually about October 1st in the Riverside, Wash. area.
- Shape abruptly pointed at apex, medium thickness, medium to dark green in color, having a smooth upper surface and a pubescent lower surface.
- Margin.--Crenate, finely serrate, serrations cant sharply toward apex of leaf.
- Color.--Flowers are large and white, pink in the tight bud stage, comparable to Golden Delicious apples.
- Cavity (at the stem end).--Symmetrical, acuminate, pubescent towards apex, depth of 2.2 cm., breadth of 2 cm., smooth golden skin at outer edge of the cavity, but with a russet-like pubescence radiating from the bottom of the cavity.
- Basin at the calyx end.--Symmetrical, furrowed, glaborous with a light pubesence near calyx, depth typically 1 cm., breadth typically 3 cm.
- Skin.--Medium tough, smooth, waxed, tan or fawn colored dots are few, large, depressed and conspicuous, some of the dots are areolar, the dots are distributed uniformly in the top two-thirds of the fruit with fewer being located near the calyx end, the skin ground color is bright yellow, like R.H.S. 13-C with a distinct cherry-red blush like R.H.S. 44-A (usually present on fruit exposed to full sunlight), the bloom is wanting and no scarfskin is present.
- Seeds typically up to four medium brown seeds per cell; the seeds are typically 8 mm. long and 4 mm. wide.
- Resistance to insects and disease Good resistance to insects and disease, the tree appears to be resistant to fire blight (Erwynia amelovora).
