Abstract
A new and distinct variety of nectarine tree which is somewhat remotely similar to the Sun Grand Nectarine Tree (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 974) with which it is most closely related but from which it is distinguished therefrom by producing fruit which are mature for harvesting and shipment approximately five weeks following the fruit produced by the Sun Grand Nectarine Tree and which further produces globose shaped fruit which is clingstone by nature and which further exhibits a yellow and red skin color and a pleasing yellow-colored flesh.
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 Sun Grand Nectarine Tree (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 974) with which it is most closely similar but which is distinguished therefrom and characterized principally as to novelty by producing fruit which are mature for commercial harvesting and shipment approximately August 10 through August 20 in the San Joaquin Valley of Central California and which further has noteworthy shipping and handling characteristics.
