Jim,

How would you trace its origin?

    Henry,

    I have a HUGE pear
tree too. I don't remember the variety and it
doesn't make any difference. I'd bet it
is the same variety as yours
and, if I absolutely had to, I'd bet
that I could trace its origin and
name.

Subject: [nafex] pear question

There is a large pear tree in the
former pasture behind the farm in
Dakota County, Minnesota.

Its trunk is about 40 inches in
diameter. It towers above the other
trees around it.

The beautiful display of white flowers
got my attention this spring.

The fruit are a couple inches long,
pear shaped and green when they
fall from the tree. Hard but tasty.

It does not match callery pear nor
Ussurian pear.

Any way to figure what kind of pear we
have?
