Fruits are colored a pale lemon-yellow with brown dots. They have fine texture; are melting, buttery, juicy, and delicately flavored. Trees are hardy and productive. MOONGLOW (3002) A large, early-ripening pear. It is picking mature from 10 days to two weeks ahead of Bartlett and will ripen to prime eating quality 15 to 18 days later. Fruits are attractive, nearly free of grit cells, rather soft and moderately juicy. Flavor is rated as good. Trees of Moonglow are vigorous, very upright, heavily spurred, and bear early. Abundant pollen is present. Moonglow is very resistant to fire blight. FLEMISH BEAUTY (3003) A large, juicy, melting and rich variety that doubles as an excellent pollinator. Trees are hardy, strong growers, and good bearers; they prefer sunny locations. BARTLETT (3004) The standard by which all other pears are judged. It has large size, golden yellow color, and tremendous quality. It is equally popular on the fresh mar- ket and with the processors. Fruits are buttery, very juicy, and highly flavored. Trees are strong growers, bear early and abundantly. Bartlett is moderately susceptible to fire blight and should be planted where this disease is not too severe. AYERS (3017) A good fireblight-resistant variety for the home orchard. R
