| Notes:
|
A vigorous, drooping, medium-sized tree that is a
reliable early bearer. It responds well to thinning but dry climates adversely
affect fruit quality
It has some resistance to pear scab and
Alternaria black spot but is somewhat susceptible to fire blight and should be
sprayed against coddling moth. Spider mites can also be a problem that is best
controlled with frequent watering and an application of mite spray before
harvesting the fruit.
As with all Asian pears, the fruit needs to be handled gently and
packed carefully into padded boxes.
