ABSTRACT:
A new and distinct variety of Bosc pear is provided which originated as a whole tree mutation. The fruit of the new variety assumes a uniform russet appearance at least one month earlier than other Bosc pear varieties, and when ripened exhibits a more bronze coloration as illustrated. The fruit of the new variety exhibits small inconspicuous dots on its surface and its surface exhibits a slightly roughened texture. Commonly the fruit is ready for picking approximately one week later than that of the standard Bosc pear variety. Also, the fruit of the new variety when ripened tends to exhibit a higher soluble solids content and tends to be sweeter than that of other Bosc pear varieties.
