Red Anjou Pears

Choose a fruit:

Red Anjou pears are much like their Green Anjou counterparts in all respects other than color. Their shape, flavor and texture are virtually identical. It's their deep, rich, maroon color that sets this variety apart, particularly as a showy pear among pears in a fruit bowl or basket.

Red Anjous originated as naturally occurring variations found on Green Anjou trees. "Bud sports" are transformations that occur on trees, and they are most often unnoticed. The first red sport of Anjou was discovered in the early 1950's near Medford, Oregon, and a second red sport was discovered in the late 1970's in Parkdale, Oregon
