Description

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to improvements in Apple Trees of the Staymared type.
The new variety which is a mutation of the Scarlet Staymared apple tree was found by me during 1964 while searching for highly colored fruit for exhibition among trees of the Scarlet Staymared variety growing on a farm in Hancock County, Ind.

This propagation shows that the unique combination of characteristics and distinctive color come true to form and are established and transmitted through succeeding propagations.
