Does anyone have experience with (Lawson's) June Sugar Pear? I have a nice little tree of this cultivar that will soon be grown up enough to bear fruit, and it occurs to me that I never asked anyone whether it lives up to it's name- by actually ripening much earlier than the other pears I know. Pears around here (middle of North Carolina's coastal plain; border of zone 7/8), at least the ones in my experience, usually ripen late Summer. This pear's friends in the orchard are Magness, Seckel, Turnbull Giant, and a bradford pear across the fence at my neighbor's place. Thanks for any info!
