Perhaps Pyrus communis I imagine how to differentiate between Pyrus pashia and Pyrus communis ? In P. pashia fruits are smaller, globular, unpalatable and with white dots. It is a naturally occurring species with relatively smaller trees. P.communis has larger, smooth and globular or pyriform fruits; a cultivated species here. Leaves in P.pashia are ovate lanceolate whereas in P.communis they are elliptic. Thanks for the information. Yeah I was also talking about flowers 🙂 Thanks for the information to differentiate between the two species.
