DEVOE PEAR 



1 Year Pear Tree "Bountifully Grown" 



ANJOU — Beurre d'Anjou (30io) 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 (30n) 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 0012) 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 sj'mmetrical 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 HINT: Most pear varieties are self-unfruit- 

 ful and should he interplanted with other varieties. Seckel 

 and Bartlett will not cross- pollinate each other and where 

 these two varieties are being planted, another variety 

 shoidd be added. Duchesse and Flemish Beauty are the 

 best pollinating varieties.
