The shapely, classic pear.
The distinctive gourd-like shape and elongated neck set this variety apart from others. The medium-to-large fruit showcases a russeted dark yellow skin and smooth, aromatic flesh that is both juicy and tender. Ideal for fresh consumption, baking, or drying, it is best enjoyed at room temperature. Originating from Europe in the early 1800s, this fruit offers a unique and flavorful experience. Harvest in late September. Pollinator required.
