Bloomfields Winter

This is a midling sized green pear of a top shape and
flat at the blossom end.  The skin is green inclining when ripe
to a yellow. The flesh is firm and very hard being
used exclusively for cooking for which it is
very fine. When stewed the flesh assumes
a quince color and becomes rich sugary
juicy and tender.  It is a great bearer
& very hardy- highly deserving
of cultivation as an excellent
family fruit.
