Maintenance advice : At the end of winter, cut off any incumbent branches, to ventilate and maintain a harmonious and balanced form. Shorten any branches too long at a young age and then every 4-5 years to rejuvenate. For trellised forms, in summer, reduce spring shoots by 2/3 in length, leaving 5-6 leaves per branch, and at the end of winter cut down any twigs of more than 15cm long, to just above the third bud from the base.

Very productive. Large with light brown skin. Flesh is white yellowy-green and firm, crisp, sweet, juicy and with a delicious taste. Ripens in November, and the fruit will keep until April. This old variety was first described in 1805, by Clavel, but the origin is earlier. Distributed widely by Louis Noisette.
