Favoritka is known as one of the best pears grown in the Ural region of Russia. Great! But does it work here? Yes, you don’t need to know a syllable of Russian to grow it. Nor to eat it. The large, chubby-cheeked yellowish-green fruit is very juicy, with a buttery sweetness that lends itself well to both fresh eating or preserves. Favoritka’s resumé also includes high productivity, disease resistance, and, of course, winter hardiness.
On the topic of variety names – are some an Anglicized version of a Russian name, while this one is Russianized English? We really don’t know, but in the meantime, go right ahead and enjoy your Favoritka ‘pearka’ while wearing your ‘favoritka’ parka!
