Abstract

A new distinct pear variety is described. This interspecific variety results from crossing varieties, ‘Nijisseiki’ ( Pyrus pyrifolia Nakai) (not patented) and ‘Max Red Bartlett’ ( Pyrus communis ) (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 741). The new variety has been named ‘Prem1P’ and was selected because of its crisp texture and strong ‘Barlett’ type flavor. The fruit of this new variety is characterized by its round to high round fruit shape which has 50-70% red blush coverage.
