With a silhouette identical to green D'Anjous, Red D'Anjous are just as easy to identify by their shape. Although there are other red varieties of pears available, such as Red Bartlett, Red D'Anjous are recognizable for their near egg-shaped appearance and having a large spherical lower portion that begins a gradual and even taper above the mid-point to a smaller, rounded top.
The color of Red D'Anjous varies from pear to pear, however, they are generally dark, maroon red in color.
Usage: Elegant dessert pear. Great with chocolate.
