Chojuro Asian Pear Tree
Certified Organic
Crisp, golden orbs.
Blooms early - mid spring
These deeply sweet and flavorful Asian pears are honey-brown in color with abundant fruit set and decent shelf life, storing several months when packed carefully in a fridge or root cellar. Fruit ripens on the tree; the brown tone is a sign that they are ready to pick. Harvest period is late summer (August to early September). Crunchy and delicious! Grow with another Asian Pear variety for best pollination.
These are two-year-old, bare-root trees from our farm partner, Full Circus Farm, in Pine Plains, NY.
All of our pear trees are offered on OHxF 97 root stock. OHxF 97 leads to "standard" fruit tree size, 18-20 feet high, and is a vigorous, hardy root stock that boasts resistance to fire blight.

Choose a site in full sun, with relatively well-drained soil. Plant your tree as soon as possible after pick up, and soak the roots in water a few hours before planting. Dig a hole that will accommodate the roots when they are spread out, plus a little extra room. When planting, keep the tree perpendicular to the ground, and keep the graft a few inches above the soil. Spread the roots out and gently fill in with soil all around. Tamp the soil down and water in very well. Keep well-watered and mulched while young trees are getting established.
