Don't Forget To Add These for Your Plants:

Shinseiki Asian Pear is a compact fruiting deciduous tree with an upright habit grown for its heavy crop of large summer and fall fruit.  The glossy green foliage emerges copper bronze and turns brilliant burgundy red in fall.  The fragrant white mid spring bloom leads to the large round fruits that take several months to ripen, but they are well worth the wait! Shinseiki pears ripen to yellow with creamy sweet and mild flesh with a fine texture and hint of spice.  Grows best in full sun and rich, moist well-drained soils. Has improved fireblight resistance.

Shinseiki pears keep their texture when cooked, and store for long times. Needs a cross-pollinator, and has a very low chill requirement of 250-450 hours.
