Pyrus communus x
Warren is an excellent quality dessert pear. Tree is highly resistant to fire blight. Medium to large, long-necked fruit with pale green skin, sometimes blushed red. Smooth flesh (no grit cells) is juicy and buttery with superb flavor. Good keeper. Warren Pear was named after T.O. Warren from Hattiesburg, MS. Thought to be a seedling selection from the breeding work of USDA's fruit breeder Dr. Magness of Beltsville, MD. T.O., a fruit explorer, found the tree at a pear test plot near his home and popularized the variety. Warren pear comes from the same seed stock as Magness Pear and is very similar in appearance and disease resistance. Warren blooms mid-late season and is harvested mid-season, usually September for us in central VA. Space 10' circles for a semi-dwarf tree. Estimated Chilling Requirement: 600 hours below 45°F. USDA Plant Hardiness Zones 5-9. Self-fertile.
