Harvest queen grows very slow here. I’m going to try it again on BET rootstock. We know a lot of hard work went into all these pear varities. I felt since the harrow station is no longer there it was time to try to document some of their hard work before it is lost to time. Growing these 25 pears is my goal though it might not be obtainable. A couple of more varities were released in recent years, but nowhere available to the public could i find the 25 pear varities. It is very possible i have hw604 i got from singing tree. Grew it at the time on callery. It is similar to harrow sweet and harrow delight although it has not flowered yet.
Hw 600 , 601 , and likely 605 can be found at corvallis NCGR-Corvallis: Pyrus Catalog . These pears were the Canadian pear series before harrow Canadian Pears Enie, Menie, Miney, Moe, Phileson, Sauvignac,
