Batch) cultivar released in 2007 by the National Institute of Fruit Tree Science (NIFTS), National Agriculture and Food Research Organization in Japan. The cultivar was selected from open pollinated seedlings of an early maturing selection, 182-3. It was initially designated Peach Tsukuba 118 and was tested at 17 experimental stations in 17 prefectures in Japan under the 8th national trial of peach initiated in 2001. It was ultimately selected and released as 'Himekonatsu' in 2007 and was registered as No. 17,787 under the Plant Variety Protection and Seed Act of Japan in 2009. The tree is semi-vigorous, and the tree shape is semi-upright. It bears many flowers with fertile pollen. The fruit ripens very early in the season, about 60 days after blossoming time, 4 weeks before 'Hikawahakuho' fruit, and about 6 weeks before 'Akatsuki' fruit at NIFTS (Tsukuba). The fruit is oblate in shape and small in size, averaging 125 g in weight at NIFTS (Tsukuba). The fruit skin is covered with a bright red blush. The fruit is resistant to cracking; therefore, bagging indi-vidual fruit is unnecessary. Its fruit has a soft, melting, and juicy flesh of yellow color. In juice, the soluble solids concentration and the pH average 11.7 °Brix and 4.64, respectively, values that are comparable to those of 'Hikawahakuho'.}, pages = {7--15}, title = {モモの新品種 'ひめこなつ'}, volume = {13}, year = {2012}, yomi = {スエサダ, ユウコ and ヤマグチ, マサミ and ハジ, タカシ and ヤエガキ, ヒデアキ and キョウタニ, ヒデトシ and ニシムラ, コウイチ and スズキ, カツユキ and ミヤケ, マサノリ and ナカムラ, ユリ and コゾノ, テルオ and キハラ, タケシ and フクダ, ヒロユキ and ウチダ, マコト} }
