A 1964 raised American variety with some enviable qualities; it is odd that ‘Aurora’ has not become better known.
The fruit is very large, evenly and clasically Pear shaped, and a clean shiny lemon yellow with a pinkish blush on the sunny side. A most attractive variety with a good perfumed aroma, the flesh is sweet and juicy. Harvest in early October, will store in good condition for several weeks.
A fertile variety, easily pollinated by Williams, Beth, Onward, Sensation, Concorde, Winter Nellis etc.
Somewhat fireblioght resistant.

We have in place very rigorous standards for the health,
providence and uniformity of all our fruiting plants & trees. Our Nursery and the stock we grow is
inspected and passported for health regularly by DEFRA experts [formerly the Ministry of Agriculture]
and we have in place our own stringent controls and inspection programmes to ensure our fruiting
bushes and trees are the best, most disease free stocks available and truly beyond compare.
We always propagate from certified stock where this exists and have the highest standards regarding providence
and grading. If only the very best will do – as it should – then you can rely on a Chris Bowers fruiting
plant to give the most exemplary results available. We firmly believe that only the very healthiest
stock can and does produce vastly superior results – and it shows.
