European Variety
The Nova pear is a large pear with a thin yellow skin and a shape that is that of a typical pear but a bit rounder with more meat on it. The flesh is juicy and has a silky texture that seems to melt in your mouth. It is one of the best dessert pears but is also suitable for canning and holds its shape very well. The pear hangs well on the tree during ripening and is ready for harvest around mid-September. The Nova pear tree is a good producer that fruits reliably and with excellent yields. The tree tends toward a smaller, more expansive form than most pear trees.
