Can I say it as Pyrus pyrifolia at least? In fact I ate nashpati at Ramgarh and taste similar to Pyrus pyurifolia. It was not Pyrus communis which is very soft and sweet. Nashpati available at market in Delhi generally is Pyrus pyurifolia? 2010/7/31 Pankaj Kumar <[email protected]> > I think fruits are too young but tending to by pyriform, meaning, > narrowly ovoid with tapering base, which made me think it to be a > pear.
