asian pear 1

Hosui Standard Asian Pear Tree

Fresh Eating and Baking | August Fruit Harvest | Hardy to Zone 6

A sumptuous dessert Asian pear, Hosui bursts into ivory blooms in spring becoming an abundance of large, round golden brown pears with crisp, juicy flesh so rich and sweet. The beloved ’20th Century’ is one of Hosui’s parents; many people consider both varieties their favorite Asian pears. The leaves of Hosui emerge coppery-bronze in spring and turn brilliant crimson in fall after they ripen their fruit in late August. We love Hosui fresh off the tree and from the fridge for a month after harvest, enjoying them in pies and other baked goods​. Though Hosui and all Asian pears are self-pollinating, ​they will yield larger crops when pollinated with another variety.

Shinseiki​ is heavy-bearing and beautiful with delicately sweet ​and creamy, fine-grained flesh.

20th Century Heirloom Asian Pear Tree

Fresh Eating, Baking & Storage | Late August Fruit Harvest | Hardy to Zone 6

Juicy sweet and deliciously crisp, 20th Century bears abundance earlier than many other varieties and has been one of the most popular Asian pears for well over a century. Originally a seedling fostered by a 13-year-old farm boy in Japan, the delectably disease-resistant fruit came of age at the turn of the century and became immensely popular, inspiring the name. The original tree was designated as a national monument in 1935 only for its historic orchard to be burned in an air raid in 1944. A monument memorializes the tree today in a small playground called 20th Century Park. Though 20th Century and all Asian pears are self-pollinating, ​they will yield larger crops when pollinated with another variety.

asian pear 3

Olympic Standard Asian Pear Tree

Fresh Eating, Baking & Storage | Mid to Late Season Fruit Harvest | Hardy to Zone 5

Olympic is marvelously flavorful as well as massive, each fruit often weighing one pound or more. We love Olympic fresh off the branch as well as baked into pies and cobblers, their crisp butterscotch sweetness holding marvelously up to 6 months in the fridge. Often bearing fruit in their third year, this impressive variety is also fondly known as Korean Giant. Though Olympic and all Asian pears are self-pollinating, ​they will yield larger crops when pollinated with another variety.

Delicious! Hardy to Zone 5, Jefferson hazelnut trees are one of the most popular varieties of commercial hazelnut growers. Yamhill and Jefferson Hazelnuts are often planted together for cross-pollination, since Jefferson needs another variety to pollinate and produce their large nuts with prodigious yields. Our resilient seedlings are 6 to 12 inches tall with strong roots ready to surround you with abundance! Hazels often start producing by year 3 and often offer a gallon of nuts by year 5, growing more abundant for many years.
