Table 


Ozark Pink: survived a tomato hornworm invasion, produced throughout the season; good flavor.

Arkansas Traveler: survived hornworm onslaught, produced late into the season, good flavor; Arkansas name connection.

Cherokee Purple: survived hornworm invasion, good producer, excellent flavor.

Black Trifele: survived hornworm onslaught; flavor-wise, probably my favorite because of its mild and smoky flavor; much smaller than a pear for me, with a few cracks. Not a prolific producer, but worth the trouble.
