A medium sized greenish brown pear with light, russeting, Magness is considered by many to be the very finest flavoured of all the pears when fully ripe. It’s rich, sugary, smooth, aromatic flesh is juicy and grit free with a slightly tougher skin which reduced insect damage and contributes to longer shelf life. Can be stored up to four months. Extremely fireblight resistant tree grows more spreading than most pears and is moderately productive.
NEEDS A POLLENIZER | ZONE 4/5 | HARVEST: MID-LATE SEPT
All European (regular) and Asian pears will pollinate each other providing their bloom times overlap. Generally you can go by the expected harvest time, meaning only the very early and the very late might not be compatible with each other. However, since Asian pears, on average, bloom earlier than Europeans, you might pair an early European with a mid or late Asian.
