Description
A San Pedro-type named informally after the Wellington street where the original tree once stood — the site is now a car park and apartment complex. Medium-sized pyriform fruit with green skin and sweet, honeyed amber flesh. Produces a very heavy breba crop but no main crop. Similar in character to San Pedro No. 3.
