Dana's Hovey pear

Just ate my first ever of these and have to say it's a great little pear, and very pretty. Ripens earlier than Gold Spice, luscious and juicy, flavorful. Squirrels beat me to the others but next year I'll be more vigilant. I only have a couple of branches of this on my tree so I'll never get many, but I do like them.

Had a lot of trouble with squirrel in the pear this year. They stripped the Frost and got one of my two Pezzuti pears. I wrapped the other with screen wire and tied it up. Looks like I still have a fair number of Seckels and Gold Spice to protect.
