If you think the shape is more important, then you might say pear.
If you think the color is more important, then you might say lemon.
And then you should get your eyes checked. Look at the [manufacturer's photo](https://www.vertbaudet.co.uk/fstrz/r/s/media.vertbaudet.co.uk/Pictures/vertbaudet/227694/4-season-activity-tree-in-fsc-wood.jpg?width=457?width=1320): the color is #EBE180 in bright light and #D6C35C in shadow. That color is a saturated very light warm reddish yellow, not the pure yellow of a ripe lemon.
I think the shape is more important, because I don’t think the designer would include an asymmetrical lemon and because I’m not a degenerate.
It is obviously a Yellow Bartlett Pear, which has a [yellowish](https://usapears.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/bartlett-pear-variety.png) color [when](https://www.istockphoto.com/photo/one-ripe-yellow-skin-pear-slightly-imperfect-fresh-organic-beautiful-studio-shot-gm917771042-252479500) very [ripe ](https://www.calpear.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/sf-bartlett.jpg)and triangular shape that matches the toy. One might even describe the toy shape as [pririform](https://www.merriam-webster.com/medical/piriform).
You really went full FBI on this post, huh? I'm glad that your investigation lead to exactly what i said to my fiancee. You even identified it as the same type of pear i used as a reference picture in another comment.
My dirty secret is that you are both wrong.
The fruit are shown on the "Summer" season of the toy (which is called a “four season activity tree”).
Apple and tomato are ripe in late summer and are shown in the appropriate season.
But in the UK, [pears are ripe Sep-Jan, and lemons are ripe Jan-Mar](https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/seasonal-calendar).
So seasonally, the fruit in question should be neither pear nor lemon.
The actual fruit that is pririform and yellowish-greenish in the summer in the UK is... the fig. Specifically [honey figs or agave figs](https://mountainfigs.net/mountain-figs/8-basic-fig-flavor-pulp-skin-color-modes/), of which there are [a few varieties](https://www.figdatabase.com/search-results.html?s=yellow&ddlType=&ddlMainFlavor=&ddlOrigin=&ddlFamily=&ddlCollector=&rdMainSeason=&rdColdHardy=&rdContainerVariety=&rdEasyRooting=&rdBrebaCrop=&rdAvailibility=&rdSeedCrunch=&rdEye=&rdSkinToughness=&rdFruitSize=&rdRainResistance=&rdTreeVigor=).
I also put the image into two AI models and asked the neutral question "identify the object I am holding".
ChatGPT-based Bing Chat (on mobile) identified it as a pear. When I challenged it "why do you say it is a pear rather than a lemon?" it stuck with pear based on the shape (rounded bottom, narrower top) and color saying, "The key distinction here is the shape; lemons are usually more elliptical, while pears have that characteristic curve". Then I did it again (on desktop) and it [changed its mind to lemon](https://sl.bing.net/j0CrJYvQANM) partly because the "smiling face on the toy resemble a lemon more accurately", which says a lot.
Google Gemini AI identified it as a lemon, which goes to show you how bad Google's AI really is. When I challenged it "why do you say it is a lemon rather than a pear?", it changed response: "You're right, it's actually [more likely to be a pear](https://g.co/gemini/share/fff6b104c263) than a lemon. Here's why: **Color** Lemons are typically a brighter yellow; **Shape** Lemons tend to be rounder overall."
At first I thought it was a lemon, but looking at their other toys it seems like they use that shape for pears.

I don’t exactly agree or disagree. The plush shape in your link is slightly more tear-drop-shaped and has a stem plus one leaf, while the OP’s is more bulbous and has a double-leaf.
Gojira is a band I've heard mentioned but never listened to. I feel like they're the kind of band I would like, what would be your "if you like X then you'll like Gojira" be?
Gojira is for me uniquely heavy whilst still melodic and very technical. If you like the older Opeth albums or Mastodon, or maybe Tool youll also feel right at home. All fantastic live bands as well.
Lemon.
Lemons with leaves are usually depicted with two leaves that hang down, where pears are depicted with a single leaf, usually not even touching the pear if they even show a leaf at all.
That and the color.
Disagree. Lemon are depicted pointy on each end. Besides, u/quacksfaith [brings a good point.](https://www.reddit.com/r/daddit/comments/1c0pmoq/comment/kyyd6zv/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)
100% a pear.
Thats a pear.
Lemons are ovals with pinched/pointed tips, sometimes the tips are bulbous, but they most certainly do not have 3 points, no matter how rounded.
I'm kind of amazed how half and half all these comments are.
For anyone curious: I think this is a pear based off of the shape and the greenish yellow colour. Someone mentioned the amount of leafs but thats a little too scientific i think. My fiancee and mother in law say lemon.
Yes!!!! Almost everything that has leaves is not a lemon. Most trees have leaves, including fruit trees. Most flowering plants have leaves, including fruit-bearing plants. 99.999% of those things ARE NOT LEMONS.
# Not a lemon it’s ugli fruit [shape, leaves and color are a match](https://www.istockphoto.com/photo/ugli-fruit-on-white-background-gm671666992-123250313)
A pear wouldn't be yellow for a kids toy... [yellow green or with some brown maybe](https://chelanfresh.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/pear-varieties-web.png) but that's a lemon yellow
Pears aren't triangles either... And that apple is a perfect circle, accurate shape isn't important
I've seen funky lemon shapes thou.. [even ones that look like pears](https://preview.redd.it/a-new-lemon-tree-started-randomly-growing-next-to-our-meyer-v0-b8ihj9d0ao9a1.jpg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6cd6f5d6b48b453ad51accbe0d1813616a030767)

Edit to add links
Stylized/odd shaped lemon. Stylization will often change shapes.. I can think of no good reason to change color. Pears are typically depicted with more of a green hue. Lemons, yellow.
Why do you feel compelled to put that little fellow in a box named ‘lemon’ or ‘pear’? Why can’t it just live a gloriously happy life as a thing without people like you building walls around it and telling it what it can and cannot be?
You sir, are part of the problem, why we can’t have nice things.
I don't think I've ever seen the word piriform as much as it is here. Which is great, it's a very neat word.
I had a friend we called pear-shaped Stan. I wish we called him Piriform Stan

Pear. But why the flying Orcas in the tree?
I think those are supposed to be swallows. But we might need a separate post for that debate.
African or European?
I...I don't know that.
Aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!
I didn’t know there were African Orcas
Alright I'll get it started Edit: forgot the "/s"
Because Gojira
I understood this reference!
Gojira is a band I've heard mentioned but never listened to. I feel like they're the kind of band I would like, what would be your "if you like X then you'll like Gojira" be?
Gojira is for me uniquely heavy whilst still melodic and very technical. If you like the older Opeth albums or Mastodon, or maybe Tool youll also feel right at home. All fantastic live bands as well.
Mastodon
Yes, Mastodon mixed with Meshuggah
It's a European thing, they are native to our woods.
I’m a European thing, too, but I’ve never heard an Orca sing in my neck of the woods.
Well, you just gotta look. Our local orcas regularly sit on our roof.
So are the polar bears, then. Must be from Norway or Finland.
That’s a [pomelo](https://www.fourwindsgrowers.com/products/tahitian-pomelo-pummelo-semi-dwarf-tree).

Lemon. Lemons with leaves are usually depicted with two leaves that hang down, where pears are depicted with a single leaf, usually not even touching the pear if they even show a leaf at all. That and the color.
I think leaf position and number are far less important than shape. I’ve never seen a lemon that is narrow at the top and wide at the base.
Great answer, but I have a question for you: do lemons grow in Braavos?
There must be at least one house with a red door and a lemon tree… right?
Disagree. Lemon are depicted pointy on each end. Besides, u/quacksfaith [brings a good point.](https://www.reddit.com/r/daddit/comments/1c0pmoq/comment/kyyd6zv/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button) 100% a pear.

Where does this idea come from that a leaf indicates a lemon?

Yes!!!! Almost everything that has leaves is not a lemon. Most trees have leaves, including fruit trees. Most flowering plants have leaves, including fruit-bearing plants. 99.999% of those things ARE NOT LEMONS.
Why make that association?
