Abstract
A new and distinct peach tree denominated as "Pampaian's Late Babcock" generally resembling the Giant Babcock Peach Tree (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 11,353) but bearing fruit ripening about one month later and having a distinctly-colored, roughly-textured suture line.
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 peach tree, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Plant Letters Patent is: 1. A new and distinct variety of peach tree, substantially as illustrated and described, characterized by its bearing of freestone fruit having white flesh and by its general resemblance to the Giant Babcock Peach Tree (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 1,353) from which it is distinguished by its bearing of fruit maturing approximately one month later than that of the Giant Babcock and having a distinctive suture having a dark red coloration radiating through the flesh in the suture plane toward the stone.
