Churchland Pear
The Churchland or Church is a cultivar of the European Pear (''Pyrus communis'') which is a native of New Rochelle, New York in northeastern United States. It is believed to have originated as a seedling raised by one of the early Huguenot settlers of the village in the late 17th century.〔Downing, A.J. (1853). The Horticulturist, And Journal Of Rural Art And Rural Taste. James Vice Jr..〕 The original tree stood on land which was owned by the Trinity St. Paul's Church of New Rochelle, hence the naming of the fruit "Church".〔(Retrieved 2011-05-29. "The Horticulturist, And Journal Of Rural Art And Rural Taste". )〕 The fruit was so luscious that it was universally liked and, by grafting, the tree soon had extensive propagation throughout the country. An early account of the tree appeared in the proceedings of the American Pomological Society in 1856.〔Seacord, Morgan H. (1938). Historic Landmarks of New Rochelle. New Rochelle, New York: Huguenot and Historical Association. pp. 121.〕
During its early years, New Rochelle was well known for the propagation of trees and shrubbery. The Huguenot settlers were especially skilled in the development of fruits and flowers. The Parsonage and Huntington pear varieties are also native to the community, as well as the Lawton Blackberry, the first widely cultivated blackberry in the country.
