Abstract
A new and distinct variety of peach Prunus persica, tree, its novelty consists of the following unique combination of features that are desirable in a new variety:
1. Heavy and regular production of large size fruit.
2. Fruit with excellent flavor and eating quality.
3. Relatively uniform size of fruit throughout the tree.
4. Fruit with firm white flesh, good handling and shipping quality.
5. Fruit with a high degree of attractive red skin color.
6. Fruit holding firm on the tree 5 to 6 days after maturity (shipping ripe).
7. Vigorous, upright growth.
Description
The present new variety of peach tree was developed by us in our experimental orchard located near Modesto, Calif., as a second generation cross between two seedling selections with field identification numbers 22GA1110 and 16GA384. The maternal parent (22GA1110) originated from a cross between a nectarine seedling of unknown parentage and Redwing Peach (U.S. Plant Pat. No. #621). The pollen parent (16GA384) also originated from a cross between Redwing Peach and a nectarine seedling of unknown parentage. We grew and maintained a large group of these second generation seedlings under close observation, one such seedling, having especially desirable fruit characteristics, was selected for asexual reproduction and commercialization.
The present new variety of peach tree was asexually propagated by budding, as performed by us in our experimental orchard, located near Modesto, Calif., and shows that all characteristics of the tree and its fruit are established and transmitted through succeeding asexual propagations and come true to the original tree in all respects.
The new and distinct variety of peach tree is of large size, vigorous, upright growth and a productive and regular bearer of large, firm, white flesh, clingstone fruit with excellent flavor and eating quality. The fruit is relatively uniform in size throughout the tree, holds firm on the tree 5 to 6 days after maturity (shipping ripe), has good handling and shipping quality and a high degree of attractive red skin color. In comparison to its white flesh parent Redwing Peach (U.S. Plant Pat. No. #621), the new variety has firmer flesh, with greater handling and shipping quality and a higher degree of attractive red skin color.
The accompanying photographic illustration shows typical specimens of the foliage and fruit of the present new variety of peach tree. The upper and lower surface of the leaves are shown, also shown is an exterior and sectional view of the fruit being divided in the suture plane to show flesh coloration, pit cavity and a stone remaining in place. The photographic illustration was taken shortly after being picked at maturity (firm ripe) and the colors are as nearly true as is reasonably possible in a color representation of this type.
The following detailed, botanical description of the new and distinct peach tree, its flowers, foliage and fruit are based on observations of specimens grown in our experimental orchard, located near Modesto, Calif., with color terminology (except those in common terms) in accordance with Reinhold Color Atlas by A. Kornerup and J. H. Wanscher.
