COMMENTS
|
H2601
is an excellent variety in the mid-season pear peeling category. It
provides superior color in this maturity class. It grows best under
double row culture when pushed for vine growth early. H2601 features
a full complement of disease resistance (VFFNPA) and the
adaptability associated with it. |
