Commonly called Sugar Pear. An heirloom variety was brought from Europe in 1790. Small, brownish-yellow fruits, with a russet-red blush, are the perfect size for snacking, pickling, and canning whole. Flesh is fine-grained, juicy, and extremely sweet with a distinctive, spicy flavor that is rich and aromatic, unlike any other pear. Naturally, semi-dwarf trees are slow-growing but widely adaptable and productive. Somewhat self-pollinating but yields increase with cross-pollination, we recommend Flemish Beauty. Moderate resistance to Fire Blight. Begins ripening in September. Zones 5-8.
