Very large, elongated, long necked, lemon-yellow fruit with dull red cheek and russet specks. White flesh is high quality, fine grained, very sweet and highly flavored. Dessert and fresh eating pear that is also good for canning. Not a keeper. Should be picked when full size but still green; do not leave on the tree. Fruit will break down at the core if picked too late. Strong, sturdy, very hardy, vigorous tree. Susceptible to fire blight. Ripens late August. Annual bearer. Hardy to Zone 4.
