Narrative
Listed in 1912 catalog of Pepinieres Andre Leroy, Angers, France as a comparatively new variety at that time. Fruit large and resembles that of Pound in form. Skin thick, tough, greenish-yellow in color, with some blemish. Flesh reasonably firm in texture at maturity, somewhat coarse, moderately juicy. Mild in flavor, superior to Pound in dessert quality. Late keeper, ripens very slowly. Tree extremely lusty, dark green foliage. Moderately susceptible to fire blight. - H. Hartman, Oregon Agricultural Experiment Station, 1957
