D'Anjou is a popular green pear with a good winter shelf life. Fruit is juicy with a sweet yet brisk flavor and hint of citrus. Red Bartlett has large, red-blushed sweet fruit that is juicy and aromatic. Harvest in late summer to early fall. Bartlett has large golden-yellow skinned fruit with sweet, creamy white flesh, perfect for eating fresh, canning or cooking. Harvest in late summer to early fall.
