Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Pomona College Journal of Economic Botany, Vol. 2: February, 1912
One or two other small importations of seed from South America were made by French nurserymen, but no large number of plants were raised, and they were not widely disseminated, so that practically all of the Feijoas in both Europe and North America can be said to have originated from either Andre's introduction or the importation of seed by Besson freres.
