Publication number: 20160128254Abstract: The present invention is a new and distinct floricane fruiting red raspberry cultivar named ‘Piringer’, which is capable of producing large quantities of commercial size and quality fruit in subtropical or warm temperate areas which experience little winter chilling. The cultivar is characterized by high bud break and vigorous flower truss growth on low chilled plants which bear fruit early in the season. ‘Piringer’ fruit is light colored, truncated conic, firm, easily seen and picked and uniform; making it suitable for commercial shipping. The plant has a tendency toward trifoliolate (vs. pentafoliolate) leaves, dark red, somewhat innocuous thorns, and relatively smooth and simple leaf margins.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 28, 2015Publication date: May 5, 2016Inventors: Harry Jan Swartz, Eva Mccarthy, Peter Edward Vinson

Publication number: 20150181783Abstract: The present invention is a new and distinct floricane fruiting red raspberry cultivar named ‘Sapphire’, which is capable of producing large, attractive, flavorful and firm fruit which has exceptional consumer appeal characteristics. The cultivar is characterized by its thorniness throughout the plant, as described herein, lack of fall or primocane fruiting, its strong and distinctive flavor and firmness and its very large fruit size, weight and morphology, specifically its truncated conic, very uniform, fruit shape with minimal bulginess in its basal region or on its receptacle. ‘Sapphire’ plants are very productive in regions having sufficient chilling to produce sufficient spring bud break. Its high yield, firmness, storage ability and large size make ‘Sapphire’ economical to pick mid to mid late season floricane variety for shipping.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 24, 2013Publication date: June 25, 2015Applicant: FIVE ACES BREEDING LLCInventors: Harry Jan Swartz, Eva McCarthy
