Pear identification help please



Can someone help me identify this pear from Ison’s Nursery? It was a mislabeled Korean Giant and is clearly something else. This is the first year of fruiting and I’m trying to figure out what it is and when the fruit will be ripe for picking. If it’s decent I may keep a branch or two when I graft it over.

Ison’s only sells 11 varieties of asian and euro pears. It’s not any of the asians they sell and not some of the euro’s. I’m going with kieffer.

Looks a lot like Kieffer to me, too.

I picked one today and it’s still as hard as stone.


That is probably Kieffer as noted above. The shape and fruit characteristics are unique.

Thanks for guessing Mark. Came from Gpas orchard and don’t see anything comparable lol. I like the red blush though
