EST. PRODUCTIVO DE DANILO CHRISTEN
10 August 2026
The name derives from a Sicilian word meaning "May-related" and is applied to local fruit tree varieties that ripen early in the season. In the context of pears, this designation refers to local ethno-varieties rather than a product of targeted scientific breeding.
The main distinguishing feature of such forms is their early ripening date. This allows the fruit to ripen before the period of mass activity of pests, such as the codling moth. A standardized morphological description for these forms is absent due to their origin from folk breeding and high variability.
