Deveci is a large eating pear, thought to originate from Turkey.
The huge pears can weigh over 1kg each, and as a result the tree may take on a pendulous habit as it ages.
The pears ripen very late - usually at the end of October or early November, making this a good variety for extending the fresh pear season. They can also be kept for several months.
