ABSTRACT:
The new variety is a whole tree bud mutation of the Summerland Red McIntosh apple tree (non-patented) which was discovered in my orchard at Oyama, British Columbia, Canada. This variety is of the spur-type, possesses a vigorous compact more upright growth habit, and heavily bears fruit on a consistent basis which is of a more intense solid red color. It possesses more fruiting spurs per linear foot than the McIntosh apple tree -- Gatzke strain (non-patented) and less fruiting spurs per linear foot than the McIntosh apple tree -- Greenslade strain (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 2,982) and the McIntosh apple tree -- Raikes strain (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 3,390). Additionally, its propensity to form shoots (i.e. vegetative growth) is different (as described) than that of the McIntosh apple tree -- Gatzke strain, the McIntosh apple tree -- Greenslade strain and the McIntosh apple tree -- Raikes strain.
