ripened fruit for your table. 

PEARS 
Most varieties of Pears are self un- 
fruitful, or self incompatible, even 
though they bear excellent pollen. 
Duchesse d’Angouleme has proved to be 
-a desirable pollinator for the other va- 
rieties that we offer. Bartlett and 
Seckel will not cross pollinate; use 
Duchesse d’Angouleme if either or both 
of the above two are being planted.
