The 20th Century Asian pear tree is a hybrid of two other Asian pear varieties, and is also known as Nijisseiki. Asian pears are generally round in shape, with a crisp, gritty, firm to hard texture and are often called apple pears because of their roundness and crispness. 20th Century' is a medium-sized, apple-shaped fruit with medium, yellowish-green skin.
