Crisp & Sweet Tasting Fruit
If you prefer the sweet flavor of pears but the crunch of an apple, look no further than the Shinseiki Asian Pear tree.
The Shinseiki Pear tree is ideal for warmer climates due to its low chill hour requirement of 300-400 hours for fruit production. This Pyrus pyrifolia cultivar is low maintenance and easy to grow and will begin heavily bearing fruit after its second year of planting.
Shinseiki Asian Pear trees are self-pollinating and feature delicious bright yellow-skinned fruit that begins to ripen in mid-July. This Asian pear variety will benefit from the addition of other Asian pear trees planted nearby to enhance cross-pollinating. Shinko Pear Tree is the best variety for this.
The yellow fruit is crisp, juicy sweet, and slightly tart, making it ideal for salads, pies, and fresh eating. It is commonly called dessert pears for its sweet and juicy taste. Harvest these medium-sized pears in the late summer months – usually sometime in August. Once ripe, the pears can bruise easily.

Shinseiki Asian Pear Tree Care
Shinseiki is resistant to pests and diseases (even to the destructive codling moth). It is somewhat resistant to fire blight but can be susceptible to fire blight if placed in the wrong location.
Prune your pear trees in late winter or early spring before green fruit production begins. You want to prune for air circulation, prune off dead and diseased branches. In late spring or early summer, you may have to prune heavy-bearing branches. Since these trees produce bushels of apple pears, the fruit will begin to bear too much weight on one branch. Prune annually and perfect fruit thinning for the best crop production.
These are not bare-root trees. They ship rooted in a pot with soil with planting care instructions.
