Superb Pears
Reviewed By: David C (Northeast , Georgia)
We planted this tree for our daughter and son-in-law. It is essentially care free - a little weeding, watering and light fertilizing. Pear trees need NO fertilizer or VERY LOW nitrogen. Otherwise the fruits will not form or drop prematurely. We had 60+ fruits the 3rd year and they were delicious and had long shelf life in the refrigerator. If you enjoy crisp and sweet pears and have room for only one tree, this Olympic Giant Asian Pear tree is THE ONE. Highly recommended. Look for Gurneys coupons on the internet and you may be able to get two trees for the price of one.

This tree grew up to be very long and slender. SO GOOD. I brought one to honor my Mexican son's 93nd birthday. Yes, it was a very fun day. You know? We had pizza and rice it was very good. But this guy threw a football and killed my pear tree so i had to buy this one. Very good one, buy it and enjoy it's juices
