Harvest date: August 5-15, available until August 25

The Red Clapp's Pear is one of the first fresh eating pears on the market, ready to eat in mid August. A selected sport from the original Clapp's Favorite, this variety is by far the reddest of all pears, offering the same high quality as the original Clapp's. The fruit is medium to large size, tear-drop shaped, sweet, fine-grained with very white flesh and excellent flavor, (shelf life - 6 weeks in regular storage)
