Abstract

A new and distinct variety of cherry tree, which is denominated varietally as ‘SMS-16-CA 2014-16’ is described, and which produces fruit having a very large size, an early ripening time, is highly productive, and which further has symmetrically shaped fruit when grown under the ecological conditions prevailing in the states of California and Washington, and wherein the mature fruit displays little or no indentation along the suture line.

Description

[0001]Latin name: Prunus avium L.[0002]Varietal denomination: ‘SMS-16-CA 2014-16’.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]The new variety was discovered from an open pollination of seeds collected from a proprietary sweet cherry selection ‘SC3-35’ (unpatented), and which was located near Vina, Lodi, and Bakersfield, Calif. in 1998. The seeds stratified, testa removed, and then were germinated and planted in pots in 1999. After germination, the aforementioned seeds were grown in pots for 3 years until flowering. Fruit was first observed in 2002. A first asexual propagation took place when buds were taken in that same year and propagated on the Prunus mahaleb rootstock (unpatented) for further confidential trials, and which were conducted in Vina, Calif., and Spain starting in 2003. After two years of cropping in pots, buds were taken in a second asexual reproduction and grafted onto Prunus mahaleb rootstock for further evaluation in Stockton, Calif. in 2004. Additional confidential trials s...
