Peach tree

Abstract

A peach tree which is of medium size, medium vigor, upright to spreading, open, vase-formed, hardy, foliated with medium size, lanceolate to almost ovate-lanceolate, acutely pointed, long, tapering leaves having a finely serrate margin, short petiole, and opposite, reniform glands, blooms early to medium with medium size, broad ovate, showy, pink flowers, and a regular and very productive bearer of large, uniform, slightly unsymmetrical, broadly truncate-globose, late ripening, freestone fruit having yellowish green to yellowish skin blushed with dull grayish red, and yellow flesh, the surface of the pit cavity being red.

I claim: 
     
       1. A new and distinct variety of peach tree, substantially as illustrated and described, particularly characterized by freestone fruit which--in particular comparison with the Autumn Gem--is similar in size and skin color but is in harvest approximately two weeks later.
