Augbert as it fruits on the Station grounds is a disappointment in productiveness 

 and in quality of fruit. It originated with Joel Boon, Lindale, Texas, about 1897, from 

 a seed of Elberta, thought to have been fertilized with Salwey. In 1906 the name Augbert 

 was registered as a trade-mark. In 1909 the variety was put on the fruit-list of the 

 American Pomological Society. Tree vigorous; glands reniform; flowers medium in size; 

 fruit large, oval, slightly cordate; cavity abrupt, medium to deep, often marked with 

 red ; apex terminates in a noticeable mamelon tip ; skin thin, tough, finely pubescent, light 

 golden, with a few carmine splashes on a lighter red cheek; flesh yellow, stained with red 

 at the pit, tender, fine-grained, juicy, vinous; stone large, oval, pointed at the ends, 

 plump; ripens just before Salwey.
