Pyrus communis 'Hessle' (D)

A medium-sized, upright tree with long, shiny, oval leaves and white blossom in spring. The small, round-to-conical, dessert pears have greenish-yellow skin with variable russetting. The pale yellow flesh is juicy, melting and sweet but with little flavour. Pick in early autumn and use to mid-autumn; very hardy and crops reliably even in cooler conditions. Not self-fertile, in pollination group 2
