Pear tree

Abstract

A novel pear variety originating as a sport of Regal Red Comice, characterized by its solid red fruit color, Comice shape and smaller tree habit.

What is claimed is: 
     
       1. A new and distinct variety of pear tree, substantially as shown and described herein, distinguished principally from its parent, the Regal Red Comice, by being a spur-type tree bearing fruit, having a substantially solid red color throughout the growing season, with little or no purplish tint and having very slight yellowish undercoat when ripe, having substantially thicker and tougher skin, and having a rounded shape more nearly similar to the standard Doyenne Du Comice.
