Key Features

• Grafted onto Pyrus betulifolia rootstock for strong growth and resilience
• Healthy live tree ready for planting
• Produces aromatic, crisp, and juicy pears
• Moderate growth rate with a mature height of 12–20 feet

Growing Information

This deciduous fruit tree thrives in full sun, requiring 6–8 hours of direct sunlight daily. It prefers well-draining, fertile soil and moderate watering with consistent moisture during establishment. While container growing is possible when young, planting in the ground is recommended for long-term growth. For optimal fruit production, plant near another Asian pear variety to ensure cross-pollination. Thinning developing fruits can improve size, flavor, and tree health.
