Properly Identifying the Tenn. AYRES Pear

@Stan @wfwalton @DennisD @Stan

Yes on the ayers thread I posted this which describes all about it. The top photo on post # 1 by wfwalton on this thread is ayers.

Ayers and the tenn are different pears. They are reportedly from the same breeding program which I documented here in 2017 Pear buds, blossoms, and fruit 2017 - #171 by clarkinks . Want to make sure Noone confuses Ayer and ayers as well Anyone growing the Ayer pear? Its not the same pear as Ayers

Just as a side note o.h. Ayer from Kansas was also the breeder of Douglas pear not just Ayer and there are others. Douglas Pear

@coolmantoole is familiar with tenn and the other southern pears like Ayers pear! - #50 by clarkinks Dr. Natelson is known for bringing attention to which he discusses Stacey Pear fruit - #2 by coolmantoole
Not to be confused with Tennoshui pear it is another completely different pear

I’m sure your all aware by now but there is more than one tenn pear. But you can read about that in the descriptions I posted. Honestly feel you will get more information there than anywhere. Growing both ayers and tenn.
