This pear tree is like no other, as the fruits are apple-shaped and have an apple-like texture as well. The Asian pear has a sweet flavour with a crisp yet juicy bite – the fruits are ready in late August and they are delicious when enjoyed straight from the tree. Aside from the fruits, the tree produces pretty white spring flowers and has luscious green leaves that curl slightly and are serrated at their edges. This is a great choice for adding an unusual addition to your orchard.
