Harrow Sweet Pear

Pyrus communis 'Harrow Sweet'

Harrow Sweet is an excellent late season pear, ripening with Bosc. It is known for its high quality fruit and early production. It has very good cold hardiness and resistance to fire blight. The fruit is yellow skinned with a red blush and only a very slight russeting. The flesh is white, very sweet and juicy and flavorful. It will keep well.

Harrow Sweet was selected in 1980 at the Aagriculture Canada Research Station in Harrow, Ontario, where many good peaches were also bred and introduced.
