Summercrisp is a cold-hardy variety known for its crisp texture, mild flavor, and early ripening. The fruit is medium sized with green skin and a red blush, best enjoyed when still firm for fresh eating. It is not self-fertile and requires a compatible pollinator for good fruit production. Summercrisp ripens in late summer, earlier than most pears, and holds its texture well without softening quickly. The tree needs about 800 to 1,000 chilling hours.
