Large-fruited, late-maturing, storage-tolerant peach cultivar Yuxi Hongmi: characteristics and cultivation techniques
Yuxi Hongmi (tentative name) was bred by the College of Forestry, Henan University of Science and Technology in 1996 by crossing Wanhongmi as the female parent with mixed pollen from the local cultivars Bayuexian and Meixian Dongtao as the male parent. The fruit is extremely large, round-spherical, with an average single-fruit weight of 350 g. The sun-exposed side of the fruit is rose-red and attractive; the flesh is fine and firm, sweet, clingstone, and very hard. It has good stress resistance, with no fruit cracking or fruit drop. The fruit ripens in mid-September, coinciding with the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day, giving it good market prospects. Its cultivar characteristics and cultivation techniques are described below.
