Abstract: A new and distinct variety of pistachio tree which is somewhat remotely similar to the `Kerman` pistachio tree, but from which it is distinguished in a number of respects including that it produces a high quality crop with many fewer hours of winter chilling, the configuration of the tree is more narrow and taller and by producing its crop which is mature for harvesting and shipment approximately one; week before that of the `Kerman` pistachio tree in Omer, Israel.
Abstract: A new and distinct variety of pistachio tree which is somewhat remotely similar to the `Kerman` pistachio tree, but from which it is distinguished in a number of respects including by producing its crop with many fewer hours of winter chilling, by having more compact configurations permitting the trees of the new variety to be planted in patterns of greater density, by producing a crop which is mature for harvesting and shipment in Omer, Israel approximately eight days prior to the crop of the `Kerman` pistachio tree, and by producing a crop which equals or exceeds the quality of that of the `Kerman` pistachio tree in nearly all respects.
Abstract: The new cultivar was formed through the crossing of the `Golden Delicious` and `Grifer` apple cultivars. Attractive yellow fruit commonly having an orange blush or overcolor extending over a potion of the skin is formed that is ready for harvest mid to late in the season. The extent of the overcolor on the mature fruit is influenced by the position of the fruit on the tree and the level of sunlight that is encountered during ripening. The fruit is excellent in flavor and texture. The fruit flesh well resists darkening upon exposure to ambient conditions. Additionally, attractive medium green foliage having an acuminate apex and a rounded base is formed.
