Definitions

  • My present discovery relates to a new and useful variety of plum tree, with particular reference to the fruit produced by the tree.
  • My new variety of plum tree originated as a volunteer chance seedling which occurred in a garden wherein only two plum trees were set one an old-fashioned Green Gage, and the other a Satsuma. These two trees were set close together and apparently the present variety is a hybrid resulting from a natural cross of these two varieties.
  • the new variety has some of the characteristics of each of these varieties but is entirely distinct and different from them or any other variety of plum known to me.
  • the fruit of my new variety is large, the pit small, the flavor definitely distinctive, the color brilliant, and the keeping and shipping qualities excellent.
  • the accompanying illustration shows, from top to bottom, a cross section of the fruit, a fully ripened fruit, and a partially ripened fruit attached to a small branch of foliage.
  • color plate numbers refer to Ridgways Color Standards and Nomenclature. Where no color plate number is given, the ordinary dictionary meaning of the term is intended.
  • the new and distinct variety of plum. tree substantially as shown and described, characterized particularly by its fast and vigorous growth; its late ripening season; its large fruits with small pits, clear firm pale yellow flesh of distinctive flavor and great juiciness, and. skin displaying varying amounts of yellow and light red according to maturity stages; as well as the excellent keeping qualities of its fruits.
