Russian commercial variety ‘Lampa Aladdina’ AKA ‘Grusha Oranzhevaya’. The name got translated into other languages when seeds were sent from Russia to other countries, and it is now known as Aladdin’s Lamp in America. ‘Aladdin’ is an Arabic (originally Syrian) name, which means “nobility of the faith”. Indeterminate, regular leaf, plant producing high yields of 2-6 oz., stunningly beautiful persimmon-colored fruits that are shaped like pears. Very good flavor. Fruits are good in sauce and perfect for canning or marinating whole.
