Pear Package - Potomac & Shenandoah
Potomac Pear: The Potomac pear is an early- to mid-season European variety known for its medium to large fruit, smooth yellow-green skin, and sweet, juicy flavor. Its firm, buttery flesh makes it ideal for fresh eating and baking. This variety thrives in full sun and well-drained soil and benefits from cross-pollination with compatible European pears for improved fruit set. 5/8" diameter at Pickup.
Shenandoah Pear: The Shenandoah pear is a late-season European variety valued for its sweet, aromatic flavor and tender, smooth texture. The fruit has yellow skin with a subtle red blush when fully ripe. This disease-resistant pear grows best in full sun with fertile, well-drained soil and produces better yields when cross-pollinated with varieties like Bartlett or Potomac. 5/8" diameter at Pickup.
