US Plant Patent PP30958

RY5

Pepper plant named ‘RY5’

UNDER PATENT

Still under patent. Protection ends October 30, 2034.

Twenty years from the filing date would end on October 11, 2037, but this patent ends 1,077 days earlier — a terminal disclaimer gives term back. A source that calculates twenty years from filing would tell you this plant is still protected when it is already free.
