The Chojuro Asian Pear Tree produces beautiful orange-brown fruit. When the pears are fully tree-ripened, they have a rich, butterscotch-like flavor. The tree is very productive when mature, yielding about 3 to 5 bushels of pears. Heavy annual thinning is recommended to ensure high yield and quality.
