  • Subject: [NAFEX] Identifying a pear
  • Date: Mon, 7 Feb 2011 10:11:52 -0500

After a decade of having no success growing pears (I've killed 8 trees), I
FOUND a pear tree along the edge of the woods on my farm. It set fruit this
year, small, russeted, very gritty pears. With no pollinizer and no special
treatment, I harvested a bucket of somewhat ugly, but still useful pears.

I am wondering how to go about identifying this pear? It is larger than a
Seckel, but smaller than a Bartlett if that is any help :)
