Description
Pyrus pyrifolia
Growing in Phoenix: Reminiscent of both an apple and pear. It has a crisp apple-like texture with the graininess of a pear. The flavor is mildly sweet and tastes like both pear and apple. Mature trees reach a size of 15-20 feet. A beautiful display of foliage, stunning when in bloom.
Takes full sun once established. Does not need any winter protection, a deciduous tree. Prefers slightly acid soil, pH of 6.
Suitable for container culture, use a 30-gallon or larger pot.
See the planting and care guide page for planting and watering instructions.
Shinseiki: Narrow(compact) growth pattern. Smaller sized tree but grows vigorously. Produces a display of fragrant creamy-white flowers in early spring. Does better with a cross-pollinator. Lemon- yellow exterior that fruits prolifically. Delicately sweet with a fine-grained texture that is crisp and juicy. Harvest early fall.
Shinko: Brownish green skin, slightly textured with lenticels. A sweet rich flavor with dense white flesh that is crisp and crunchy. Shinko needs another variety for better fruiting. Upright well-formed tree shape.
