Top Worked Pears – Tree #3

Bosc
A firm-fleshed, flavorful pear with a beautiful brownish russetted skin and a crunchy texture. Some prefer it to the smooth texture of Comice. Very sweet and juicy when fully ripe. Excellent for baking! Bosc’s are hugely productive. Ripe in October.


Harrow Delight
A heavy setting, medium-size pear with very good flavor and smooth texture, from the Harrow Station in Ontario, Canada. One of the most precocious Euro pears, regularly starting to bloom and set fruit the year after planting! Resistant to fireblight, cedar trellis rust AND scab! It blooms in late season and ripens in September. A proven winner at the Mt. Vernon station.
