Abstract
A new and distinct variety of nectarine tree which is somewhat remotely similar to the Red Jim nectarine tree (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 4,518) with which it is most closely related but from which it is distinguished in several respects including that of producing fruit which is mature for harvest and shipment later than the Red Jim nectarine tree, or approximately August 30 through September 20 in the San Joaquin Valley of California.
Show the legal claimThe single numbered claim as granted — the legal text that defines what this patent covers.
Having thus described and illustrated my new variety of nectarine tree, what I claim as new and desire to be secured by Plant Letters Patent is: 1. A new and distinct variety of nectarine tree substantially as illustrated and described and which is somewhat remotely similar to the Red Jim nectarine tree (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 4,518) with which it is most closely similar but from which it is distinguished and characterized principally as to novelty by producing fruit which is mature for commercial harvest and shipment approximately August 30 through September 20 in the San Joaquin Valley of California and which further has noteworthy shipping and handling characteristics.
