Abstract: A new and distinct variety of peach tree which is closely similar to the "Autumn Gem" peach tree (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 3,582), of which it is a mutation, but from which it is distinguished by producing fruit which are mature for harvesting and shipment approximately four weeks later than the fruit of the "Autumn Gem" peach tree.
Abstract: A new and distinct variety of peach tree having the following unique combination of desirable features:1. Producing a very firm fruit.2. A unique partially showy blossom.3. A substantially spheroidal fruit with an attractive red skin covering about 80% of the surface at maturity.4. A fruit maturing about 26 days later than the Redhaven peach.5. A fruit of good quality and taste.
Abstract: A new and distinct variety of peach tree having the following unique combination of desirable features:1. Producing a very firm fruit having a resilient flesh texture.2. Blossoms are partially non-showy when in full bloom.3. A substantially spheroidal fruit with an attractive red skin coloring over a majority of the surface.4. A late maturing fruit of good taste.5. A late maturing (after maturity of Redhaven peach) fruit of good storage and shelf life.
Abstract: A new and distinct variety of peach tree which is somewhat remotely similar to the "Elegant Lady" peach tree (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 4,399), but from which it is distinguished by producing fruit which is mature for harvesting and shipment approximately Jul. 20 to Aug. 2 in the central San Joaquin Valley of California, the fruit being freestone by nature having a round shape and which further exhibits a full red coloration in shades of light red to dark red and a pleasing, very crisp yellow flesh.
Abstract: A peach tree which is of medium size, open density, vigorous, spreading upright, foliated with medium size, lanceolate, abruptly pointed leaves having a serrulate margin, both globose and reniform glands and the stipules are long on mature foliage, blooms early to medium with a large size which is conical in shape and flattening at full bloom, showing, pink large flowers, and a very productive bearer of average, uniform, oblate very rounded, very late ripening freestone fruit having golden yellow with red blush skin, and yellow to cherub orient pink flesh, the surface of the pit cavity being red. The fruit ripens substantially after the last commercial variety presently grown.
Abstract: A new and distinct peach variety which originated as a mutation of the variety "Jerseyqueen." This new variety is a very late maturing yellow freestone peach which bears large to very large globose to slightly ovate fruit having an attractive bright orange red skin color (as illustrated). The fruit flesh is golden yellow in color, very firm, and slow softening with a very good flavor. The fruit buds are moderately hardy similar to Jerseyqueen with moderate tolerance to Xanthamonas pruni bacterial spot.
Abstract: A new and distinct variety of peach tree which is somewhat remotely similar to the "Elegant Lady" peach tree (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 4,399) and the "O'Henry" peach tree (U.S. Pat. No. 2,964), but from which it is distinguished by producing fruit which is mature for harvesting and shipment approximately July 22 to August 5 in the central San Joaquin Valley of California, the fruit being freestone having an oval shape and which further exhibits a highly colored and very firm light yellow flesh.
Abstract: A new and distinct variety of peach tree having the following unique combination of desirable features:1. Producing a very form fruit.2. A unique partially showy blossom.3. A substantially spheroidal fruit with an attractive red skin covering about 80% of the surface at maturity.4. A fruit maturing about 4 days later than the Redhaven peach.5. A fruit of good quality and taste.
Abstract: A new and distinct variety of peach tree denominated varietally as "August Lady" and which is somewhat similar to the Summer Lady peach tree [U.S. Plant Pat. No. 5,865] with which it is most closely related, but which is distinguished therefrom and characterized as to novelty by producing fruit which are mature for commercial harvesting and shipment approximately August 2 through August 9 in central California, these dates being approximately 12 days later than that of Summer Lady peach tree at the same geographic location.
Abstract: A new and distinct variety of peach tree having the following unique combination of desirable features:1. Producing a very firm fruit having a resilient flesh texture.2. Blossoms are non-showy when in full bloom.3. A substantially spheriodal fruit with yellow flesh having red mottling.4. Early maturing fruit of good taste.5. A mid-season peach variety which matures after Redhaven and which has good storage and shelf life.6. A stone having an arcuate base.
Abstract: A new and distinct variety of peach tree which produces fruit ripe for commercial harvest approximately Aug. 1 to Aug. 10 in the central San Joaquin Valley of California and somewhat remotely similar to the fruit of the "O'Henry" peach tree (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 2,964), but distinguished therefrom in numerous respects including that the fruit is generally more globose in shape and of lower acidity providing a mild, pleasant flavor.
Abstract: A new peach tree of standard size, which yields heavy crops of large fruit in about the last week of July to the first week of August in Avon, Ohio. The tree is spreading in habit and of normal density. Fruit has an attractively patterned overcolor a golden ground color; fruit is large, freestone, of rounded, attractive shape, and has firm, juicy yellow flesh with some red flecking. The tree, being self-fertile, may be planted alone in a home garden without having to plant a pollinator tree within pollination distance.
Abstract: A new and distinct variety of peach tree demoninated varietally as Autumn Flame and which is characterized as to novelty by a date of maturity for commercial harvesting and shipment of approximately September 4 through September 20 under the ecological conditions prevailing in the San Joaquin Valley of central California.
Abstract: Our new development is a distinct variety of peach tree whose novelty consists of the following unique combination of features that are outstanding in a new variety:1. Fruit with firm flesh having good handling, storage and shipping quality.2. Heavy and regular production.3. Large size fruit throughout the tree.4. Fruit with a high degree of attractive red skin color.5. Fruit with good flavor and eating quality.6. Vigorous upright growth.
