In historical literature, the term was used as a general name for a group of varieties widespread in the provinces of France. There was also confusion with certain varieties of peach with firm flesh, which had an external resemblance to the apricot.
The fruits were described as medium-sized, inferior in quality to varietal forms. The trees were characterized by vigorous growth and good yield, and due to their hardiness, such apricots were often grown in open fields in regions with temperate climates.
