Abstract

Early attempts to improve date ( Phoenix dactyliferaL.) varieties in North America had their origin in seedling-date plantings grown from seed distributed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture to private experimenters in Arizona, California, and Texas during the early years of the present century. Several new varieties originated from these seedling plantings, but none attained more than minor local importance in the Coachella Valley of California.
