Chevreuse Hâtive. 6. Leroy Dict. Pom. 6:91, 92 fig., 93. 1879.
Chevreuse is an old French sort, Nicolas de Bonnefond having mentioned it in 1665. In 1768 Duhamel failed to recognize the presence of the glands, thus causing some confusion between this and the variety he describes as Chevreuse Hâtive. Leaves crenate, with reniform glands; flowers medium in size; fruit of medium size, elongated; skin greenish-white, marbled and streaked in the sun; flesh white except beneath the blush and at the stone, melting, sweet, agreeable; stone free, large; ripens early in September.
