1 Year Pear Tree "Bountifully Grown" 
ANJOU — Beurre d'Anjou (3010) A large, fine 
pear that is buttery and melting, with a sprightly flavor. 
The tree is a fine grower, very productive, and an early 
bearer; one of our best varieties for the home and 
orchard trade. Anjou is partially resistant to fire blight. 
BEURRE BOSC OOll) A large pear colored a dark, 
rich yellow overspread with a cinnamon russet. Flesh 
is white, rich, tender, very juicy, and with pleasing aroma. 
Quality is very good, Seckel alone surpassing it as a 
dessert fruit. Trees are slow growers and do not bear at 
an early age, but are large and most productive at 
maturity. They are blight susceptible. 
DUCHESSE D'ANGOULEME (3012) A very large, 
greenish yellow pear that is the favorite of many home 
gardeners. Trees grow equally well on standard or 
dwarf roots, making beautifully symmetrical trees that 
bear early and annual crops of fine fruits. Fruits are 
buttery, melting, and of fine flavor. 
WORDEN SECKEL (3013) A Seckel type pear that is 
larger and more handsome than Seckel. Fruits are 
smooth, glossy, uniform, with a good blushed cheek on 
a handsome yellow background. They keep longer than 
Seckel. A hardy tree that bears when young. 
SECKEL (3014) A small, rich yellowish brown pear that 
is one of the best flavored ones known. Seckel is very 
productive, somewhat blight resistant, and easy to grow. 
It is the all-time favorite for home planting. 
ORIENT (3015) A good blight-resistant variety for 
southern growers. The trees are large, vigorous, produc- 
tive, and require little pruning. Fruit is firm, juicy, 
slightly sweet, and nearly round. Its creamy white flesh 
has good texture and cans well. 
KIEFFER (3016) Grown in all sections of the United 
States and Canada, the tree is practically immune to 
blight, very thrifty in growth, and bears consistently 
heavy crops. Fruits are large, colored golden yellow, 
juicy, often gritty, and of poor quality for fresh use. 
They are quite good for culinary purposes, however, and 
keep well into the winter. 
HELPFUL HIST: Most pear varieties are self-unfruit- 
ful and should be interplanted with other varieties. Seckel 
and Barllett icill not cross-pollinate each other and where 
these two varieties are being planted, another variety 
should be added. Duchesse and Flemish Beauty are the 
best pollinating varieties.
