WE ANNOUNCE THE INTRODUCTION OF THIS NEW 
BLIGHT RESISTANT AND DISEASE RESISTANT 
PEAR WHICH GIVES PROMISE OF RESTORING COMM 
ERCIAL PEAR PRODUCTION IN THE EASTERN AND 
SENTRAL STATES. 
HISTORYs= Originated as a chance seedling 
in orchards of Greiner Bros.,Marlboro, 
Ulster County,New York. The seedling, found 
growing in a rocky section of their or-= 
chards in 192) attracted their attention 
because of its unusual vigor. The original 
tree still stands,producing good crops,even 
tho other varieties in the same section of 
the orchard have blighted and died, Mr, 
Greiner has top=worked many of his trees 
to DEVOEand young | year old trees on 
Bartlett seedling roots bore their first 
crop this year (197) and to his knowledge 
there has never been any blight in any of 
the DEVOE trees. Mr. Greiner picked 3 1/2 
bushels of DEVOE pears from 5 year old 
grafts set on a Seckel pear tree. It is 
not unusual to see from 3 to 5 ft. of groth 
on Devoe trees, the foliage remaining on 
trees until late in fall. 


THESE ARE ACTUAL SIZE DRAWINGS OF TWO 
DEVOE PEARS PICKED IN SEPTEMBER 197. 
The shape will vary as the drawings 
illustrate,making a beautiful pack in 
either boxes or baskets. THE FRUITS OF 
DEVOE HANG WELL AT RIPENING TIME,ARE VERY 
UNIFORM AND LARGE IN SIZE. We have never 
seen any pear variety have the ability to 
size a heavy crop of fruit like DEVOE does, 
We suppose this is due to the vigorous 
tree and foliage characteristics, DEVOE 
fruits have an attractive blush,with green 
background at picking time,coloring a 
beautiful golden yellow under proper 
storage,as the pear ripens, Quality is 
good to very good,slightly more acid 
than Bartlett. Devoe will keep until 
March in cold storage. Foliage has a hard 
surface and resists "pear psylla" well.
