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 nectarine tree, what is new and desired to be secured by Letters Patent is: 1. A new and distinct variety of nectarine tree with fruit of yellow fleshed cling stone type, with slight red flecks throughout the flesh and not pronounced at the stone, substantially as herein shown and described, having a maturity period in the early season, the fruit being essentially round with a compressed base, having bright red skin color and being very firm, and which handles well during packing operations.
