Fruit tree

Pyrus communis 'Clapp's Favorite' is an old-growth pear native to the United States, known for its attractive golden-yellow fruit, often tinged with red. Its white flesh is fine-grained, juicy, sweet, and slightly fragrant, perfect for fresh eating or cooking. This variety offers an early harvest in late summer and should be picked before full maturity to prevent the fruit from becoming mealy. Partially self-fertile, it benefits from better production when planted near another compatible variety such as 'Bartlett'. The 'Clapp's Favorite' pear tree has abundant spring blooms, attracts pollinators, and adapts well to temperate climates with well-drained soil. Its early maturity and the eating quality of its fruit make it an excellent choice for lovers of sweet, fast-ripening pears.
