Narrative

Not to be confused with Beurre Auguste Benoist or Benoist which is a distinct variety. Listed in the catalog of Pepinieres Andre Leroy, Angers, France, 1912. Fruit resembles that of Bartlett in size and form but is smoother in finish. Skin very clear, waxy, uniform yellow color, very attractive but susceptible to friction bruising. Flesh white, fairly fine, tender, moderately juicy. Reasonably good in dessert quality but generally inferior to Bartlett. A little later than Bartlett in season. Tree fairly vigorous and productive. Good semi-dwarf on quince. Moderately susceptible to fire blight. -- H. Hartman, Oregon Ag. Experiment Station, 1957.
