Description
Productive tree yields aromatic fruit. Hardiness keeps it going where other pear trees give out. The fruit’s smooth, brilliant-red skin surrounds a soft, juicy flesh with a sweet, mild flavor. Excellent keeper. Flavor peaks about 2 months after harvest. Color improves in storage. Originates from Medford, Oregon in the early 1950s. Harvest in September. Pollinator required: Choose another pear variety, like Bartlett, Beurre Bosc or Starking® Delicious™.
