Narrative

Spartlet (PI 541351) .-Originated in Farmington, Michigan, by Edward Palacky. Introduced in 1964. Plant patent 3705; issued 15 April 1975 to Hilltop Orchards and Nurseries, Hartford, Michigan. Chance seedling of Bartlett. Discovered in 1963, tested since 1964 as Bartlett-x by Michigan State University and Gerber Products Co. Fruit: larger than Bartlett, with large basal end; skin smooth, green-yellow at maturity, often with a bright scarlet blush on exposed side, dotted with numerous pin-pointed russet lenticels; flesh aromatic, fine-grained to granular in nonripened state, smooth to buttery and slightly fibrous when fully ripened, quality rated closely to Bartlett but slightly coarser; ripens midSeptember, 12 days after Bartlett; has stored well until mid-February at 31F, makes acceptable packs of puree and sliced canned halves. Tree: large, spreading to upright; moderately vigorous; hardy; productive; shows more tolerance to fire blight than Bartlett. Recommended as a complementary choice to Bartlett not as an alternate. The name is a concatenation of Bartlett and Spartan, the Michigan State University athletic teams. -- Brooks and Olmo Register of Fruit and Nut Varieties.
