About

Pyrus bourgaeana, or the Iberian pear, is a species of pear in the rose family Rosaceae, and a close relative of the common pear. This small tree is widely distributed across the southern Iberian Peninsula and northern Morocco, where it coexists with four other Pyrus species: common pear, Plymouth pear, almond-leaved pear, and snow pear. Characteristics to discriminate these species are the width of fruit peduncle, petal size, leaf width and petiole length.
