European Pear : RESCUE Dwarf (Quince A)

$53.95

In stock

A Rescue tree bedecked with ripening fruit is a sight to behold! As Raintree Nursery puts it, "This pear is a show stopper. Everyone who sees and tastes this huge, beautiful fruit insists on buying a tree!" A bright, red-orange blush covers much of the yellowish skin. Creamy, smooth flesh is meltingly juicy with a luscious, soothing flavour for the pleasurable fresh eating. With it's small core, Rescue is an ideal canning pear too. The reliable, disease resistant tree will benefit from support under heavy laden branches in the last month or so before picking, to prevent them from breaking.

Product Overview
Pears (Pyrus communis) Pears are a great compliment to any home orchard. They usually require less maintenance than other fruit as far as pruning and spraying and tolerate heavy clay soils. Most pear orchards are gone, so Canada must import millions of pounds every years just to meet the present consumer demand. We chose this interesting collection of pears for their wonderful quality of fruit and because they are among the easiest for orchardists to grow organically. 1-2m (3-6') bareroot trees

Growing Tips

Pear Pollination Growing Tip

All European (regular) and Asian pears will pollinate each other providing their bloom times overlap. Generally you can go by the expected harvest time, meaning only the very early and the very late might not be compatible with each other. However, since Asian pears, on average, bloom earlier than Europeans, you might pair an early European with a mid or late Asian.
