Peach tree named ‘Red Princess’

摘要

The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of peach tree, Prunus persica, broadly characterized by a medium size, moderately vigorous, hardy, self-fertile, productive and regular bearing tree. The variety blooms during the mid season and requires about 600 chilling hours. The fruit matures under the ecological conditions described in late June, with first picking on Jun. 27, 2012. The fruit is uniformly large in size, acidic with traditional peach flavor, nearly globose in shape, clingstone in type, firm in texture, yellow in flesh color, virtually full red in skin color, and has a sweet kernel.

主权项

1. A new and distinct variety of peach tree, substantially as illustrated and described, that is most similar to ‘Bright Princess’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 14,695) peach by being self-fruitful, having large blossoms, having reniform leaf glands, and producing an abundance of yellow flesh peaches that are firm, that are nearly full red in skin color, and that have a sweet kernel, but is distinguished therefrom by requiring more chilling hours, by blooming later in the season, and by producing fruit that is somewhat larger in size, clingstone rather than freestone in type, and that matures about ten days later.
