Rendimiento

Early-starting, high and regular yield.

Observaciones

Autumn dessert pear for warm, open pear sites with higher heat needs; tolerates no wet, cold soils, grown up to 350 m. Tree-ripe late September to early October, ready October to November, keeps about a month. Wind-firm until tree-ripeness.

Cuidados

Pick in good time (about late September) to prevent the flesh going mealy inside. Avoid wet, cold sites.
