A new distinct pear variety is described. This interspecific variety
results from crossing varieties, `Nijisseiki` (Pyrus pyrifolia Nakai)
(not patented) and `Max Red Bartlett` (Pyrus communis) (U.S. Plant Pat.
No. 741). The new variety has been named `Prem1P` and was selected
because of its crisp texture and strong `Barlett` type flavor. The fruit
of this new variety is characterized by its round to high round fruit
shape which has 50-70% red blush coverage.
