Pear 'Shinko' 5 Gallon

Pyrus pyrifolia 'Shinko'

This upright, spreading Asian fruiting pear tree produces an abundant crop of large-sized, round, golden-brown fruit. Its white, juicy flesh is crisp and has a rich, sweet flavor with a hint of tartness. While 'Shinko' is partially self-fertile, it requires another compatible fruiting pear variety such as 'Bartlett' planted nearby to ensure optimal yield and fruit size. These pears typically start to ripen in August through September, and are excellent for canning, fresh eating and baking.
