Pear - Pyrus communis 'Orcas'

The Orcas Pear is a large, flavorful fruit with a yellow skin accented by a carmine blush at peak ripeness. It boasts a smooth, slick texture with minimal grit cells. Renowned for its exceptional scab resistance, the tree grows vigorously with a spreading form and produces abundant fruit annually. Ideal for fresh eating, canning, or drying, these pears reach maturity in early September. As a late bloomer yet early ripener, the Orcas Pear pairs well as a pollinizer with later-ripening varieties such as Bosc or Seckel.
