Pyrus communisFall. Medium-sharp perry pear. Gloucestershire, England, before 1700.
Ancient perry pear named after the village of Taynton where it was found growing near the parish. Small yellowy green fruit with white grainy flesh should get frosted for a day or two before pressing. Juice has medium acid and tannin with adequate sugar content for a fine single-variety perry. Taynton Squash perry fetched a high price in London during the 18th c. and Robert Hogg said “it affords a Perry of the greatest excellence with a sweet rich distinctive flavour, peculiarly its own.” Also good in blends.
Can yield heavy crops in good years, but like many pears it is biennial in habit. Z4. Maine Grown.NEW! (2½–6' bare-root trees)

Additional Information
European Pears
Although some pears appear to be self-pollinating, we recommend a second variety for pollination. Bloom dates for all varieties are similar. Plant 15–20' apart. For 2024, European Pears and Perry Pears are on OHxF97 or a similar rootstock.
