Pomegranate tree

Abstract

A pomegranate tree of a new and distinct variety, with about a 10 day shorter period between the appearance of blossoms and the ripening of the fruit than is the case with the "Wonderful" variety. The fruit has a more pleasing shade of red than the "Granada", and the pulp has a slightly less acid taste than the "Wonderful".

Having herein described and illustrated my new variety of pomegranate tree, what I claim as new and desire to be secured by Letters Patent is: 
     
       1. A new and distinct variety of pomegranate tree substantially as described and illustrated, said tree resembling the Wonderful (unpatented) pomegranate tree in appearance and blossoms, but being distinguished therefrom by its regular bearing of fruit which ripens about 10 days earlier than that of the Wonderful variety, is of a more pleasing cherry red color and is slightly less tart in flavor.
