Narrative

USDA hardiness zones 4-7. Crisp, sugary sweet fruit on super hardy trees. This pear was found by J. W. Jung on one of our farms in the early 1940s. The fruit was unlike any he had experienced. Pears are medium in size with thin, golden, russeted skin. When picked prior to frost, they store well under cool conditions. The crispy flesh softens for eating pleasure when kept at room temperature for a few days. Ideal for fresh eating or canning. -- information from Jung Seeds and Plants 2017 catalog, provided in an email from horticulturist Allen Pyle.
