Early ripening almond

10 years ago

I think that I developed the first early ripening almond. It ripens July 24th. Most almonds ripen in Late September; Mine came way earlier than normal. I can't wait to patent it.

Here is the description:
Ripens July 24th, soft shell, pollinated by elberta peach. Early bearer--at 2 years old.

Today I just picked the only almond nut from my F1 nonpareil almond...and it's an early-ripening almond.
