Abstract

The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of peach tree, Prunus persica , broadly characterized by a large size, vigorous, hardy, self-fertile, productive and regular bearing tree. The variety blooms during mid season and requires about 525 chilling hours. The fruit matures under the ecological conditions described in mid June, with first picking on Jun. 14, 2018. The fruit is uniform, medium in size, globose in shape, freestone in type, firm and crisp in texture, mostly red in skin color, white in flesh color, and sub-acidic in flavor.

Show the legal claimThe single numbered claim as granted — the legal text that defines what this patent covers.

We claim: 1. A new and distinct variety of peach tree, substantially as illustrated and described, that is most similar to ‘Pearl Princess III’ peach tree (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 28,505), by having showy blossoms, by being self-fertile, and by producing white flesh peaches that are mostly red in skin color, nearly globose in shape, firm in texture, and sub-acid in flavor, but is distinguished therefrom by having a larger tree, by having globose instead of reniform leaf glands, by blooming about a week later, by requiring more chilling hours, and by producing peaches that are somewhat smaller in size, that are freestone instead of clingstone in type, and that mature about six days earlier.
