Narrative
Original seed collected by Hayati Olez, Bahce Kulturleri Istasyonu, Arifiye, Adapazari, Turkey. In a letter to Mel Westwood dated 19 June, 1963, Olez describes two seedlots sent to Westwood previously. Westwood refers to these two seedlots as 'Olez Red' and 'Olez Brown' due to the color of the seed coats. Olez describes the source of the red seeds as follows: 'We are not quite sure what species the seed were which i gave you. One type of themmay possibly be Pyrus elaeagrifolia (Turkish called 'Ahlat') which were from high elevation and cold region of Kastamonu Province. P. elaeagrifolia has tap root system and is not used as rootstock for pears in Turkey.' -- Transcribed by J. Postman, August 2005.

Westwood notes indicate that both red and brown seed appear to be wild P. communis or P. pyraster, not P. elaeagrifolia.
