ABSTRACT:
This present application for a patent relates to a new asexually developed prune tree of the French type, (to be known as the Friedman French Prune). The tree is large, dense, upright, vase formed, very similar to the regular French Prune tree, but a more vigorous grower, reaching full maturity and bearing fruit at least a year earlier than regular French, well foliated with medium size and textured deep green ovate leaves, well distributed throughout the tree. The tree distinguishes from regular French however by its more vigorous growth, and faster maturity to fruit bearing stage, and the fruit always larger, more abundant and evenly distributed throughout the entire tree. All trees, Friedman French and regular French, were grown in the same orchard, under the same growing conditions for this comparison.
A very productive tree coming to full bloom a few days later (a plus if there is danger of late frost), with fruit maturing to full ripe at least 6 days earlier than regular French prune, consistantly producing a full crop, of large size, medium textured, semi-free stone fruit, having basically the same color skin and flesh as regular French prune, a distinct difference being the shape of the fruit, regular French having a true ovate shape with pronounced cavity. The Friedman French, always a much larger prune, is ovate with a distinct pear shape apex, and a small shallow cavity.
