20th Century Asian Pear Tree
The 20th Century Asian pear, also known as Nijisseiki, is celebrated for its crisp, juicy texture and delicate, mild sweetness. This golden-yellow fruit has a smooth, thin skin and a rounded shape, resembling an apple. Ideal for fresh eating, its refreshing crunch and light flavor make it a favorite for snacks or adding a sweet touch to salads and desserts. The tree is self-fruitful but benefits from a pollinator, such as Hosui or Shinseiki, for increased yields. Requiring moderate chill hours, 20th Century Asian pears thrive in full sun and well-draining soil, adapting well to a variety of climates. With its reliable harvests, beautiful spring blossoms, and high-quality fruit, this variety is a delightful and versatile addition to any orchard.Semi-dwarf on OHxF333 rootstock.
