rrow, secondary sutures well
marked; texture dry, rather coarse; flavor good; quality fair
to medium.

The above description was made from specimens received from the
J. Steckler Seed Co., New Orleans, La. The original tree stands
in the garden of H. J. Pharr, Olivier, La.; the place was
formerly owned by Oscar Olivier. The variety was first
propagated by William Nelson, and catalogued as Frotscher's
Eggshell, by Richard Frotscher, in 1885. The variety is
precocious, productive, and succeeds over a wide range of
country.
