Thanks for the great reviews! It helps me know what variety to choose.

Just bought a third Asian pear the other day! And started grafting today 🤞🏻

I find myself smiling while watching you eating those pears haha. Like I can taste the sweetness myself!

Thank you so much for this detail review! Great variety you have in garden there.

Great video! Super helpful and informative! Thank you so much!

I really love my Olympic! I only have a few left and they’re all still green. It set a huge crop, i culled 3/4 of them in spring and it was still loading and bending, but they’ve been very tasty for over a month and I ate most of them. It started dropping leaves very early, now it’s kind of bare and the birds are killing the last ones I’ve been saving… I need to learn about proper care, harvest time… and I especially need to get cuttings going. These things are pure gold! I need more!

I have a asian/American food forest I started 7 years ago I grow my own food best thing I ever did for my family's health I need to add a few of these trees to my food supply thank you for sharing 🙏🏻👍🏻

Nice collection thank you for sharing

Thank you for the video. Finally I made up my mind what I want to plant in my backyard after watching your video. The video helped a lot.

Thank you, very helpful. You did a great job at describing the different varieties. You made them sound delicious 👍

Thank you so much for this video!!

Thank you sir! That was helpful.

Helpful, thanks! I'll probably go with Hosui and 20th Century. From what I've read Hosui needs a companion for pollination, and 20th Century and Shinko are good for that.

Thanks for showing us multiple varieties of Asian pear.

Very cool, these seem like fantastic fruits to grow. I personally don't have room for a fruit tree, but my sister has a bunch and space for more. I'll definitely recommend giving one of these a try!

nice!

That first Olympic Giant had a condition known as watercore.

I just bought a four-in-one Asian fruit tree from a local nursery yesterday and planted yesterday. Can't wait for it to bear fruits. Now you making me want to buy the Olympic and Giant Fuyu.

Make sure you trim the tree properly. I made the 2022 series and talked a little about trimming multi-grafted trees.

Thank you so much for making this video! I have a Korean Giant and a mixture 3 types of Asian pear tree. I am thinking about getting a Hosui vs Shinko. Your video is very helpful!

Very nice assorted set of "star" fruit from your dooryard Khang! The fruits appear very juicy and sparkly from their sugar content on being sliced open. Very enjoyable tasting description to compliment your grafting project. Happy Gardening! -Bob...

Thanks, Bob!

20th Century I call Nijisseki you bite them near the seed it gives a tart lemony contrast against the sweet they're known for that feature

We are grafting some type of Oriental pear that I got cuttings from to the wild Bradfords that are taking over everywhere. I am not sure which variety it is, but have 1 fruit to try this year. Thank you for posting this. Trying to give them a proper tag.

Hea Khang. I believe that yours is bigger than you get at the grocery store. Those fruit trees are Beautiful.

I have a shinseiki and Korean (Olympic) Giant and agree, they are my favorites. Added a chojuro last summer but I won't be able to taste that one for a few years but heard it had a butterscotch flavor to it. Plus I wanted to make sure my Korean Giant have plenty of pollination partners!

You have bad taste. 😂

20th century is sweet and extremely juicy. Mine is productive and is disease free so far. I have over 20 fruit trees and I would say the Asian pear is one of my favorite because of its productivity and taste. I don’t think you could do any wrong with any variety. One thing to be mindful is some of these trees are prone to blight. I lost one tree that is over 5-6 years old so it’s a bummer to lose a tree after that much time investment.

Agreed. I have one 20th century and one hosui about 20 feet apart. While the hosui has been fighting this horrible disease for two years now, the 20th century seems not to be bothered at all. The only thing it ever had was powdery mildew which is nothing compared to fire blight.

I bought some Giant Korean Pear trees for my mom online for Christmas as she loves them. We are Koreans and Korean people love them :) So anyway I know to pollinate well you need another Asian pear tree type or a Barlett pear tree within 50 feet from it so I thought of grafting a branch of a different variety of Asian pear to the trees. Will that work for pollination?

Hi I know this comment is old but yes, you can graft a different pear (or many different pears) on one root stock for easy pollination.

Thank you for the series of Asian pears update. I watched them all. I have a 4 in 1 Asian pear for about 2 years now. The Hosui branch growing now twice the high and tree time the thickness compare with the other three. I’m wondering if it may take over at anytime and I will only left with Hosui. Thank you!

Hosui are very aggressive grower, same with mine. Pears tend to grow towards the central leader. I cut all mine to the same length to not allow one to over take the rest. I mentioned that on my 2022 series.

Hhmm yummy 👍🤑

Great video, I did purchase a 20th century plant, however I do see that couple of leaves are getting some brown spots not sure what could that be ? Any pointers what could be done. It’s not like small spots it’s mostly like 1/4th if the leave is kind of in brown/ blackish shade

Great information!👍👍👍 Wanted to get 4 in 1 right away after watching the video! I'm living in zone 5 . It's already September so maybe it's too late. Should I wait until next spring to plant? I've been growing one apple pear 5 years but only got few small fruits and the bugs ate it first! 😂 This spring didn't even see any flower, just grow leaves! Do you have any idea what was the problem? Thank you so much! 💕

Are your tress dwarf or semi dwarf. I’m trying to decide what size to get. It does get windy here in New Mexico and I was wondering if the dwarf will withstand the wind

I need one of them trees.

When i grow nijisseki pear tree in my back yard, should it be dwarf or standard tree? Is standard tree so tall and to be pruned so often?

Sir, Wonderful. Awesome. Very valuable information. Asian pears are great stuff and can never be underrated having magical medicinal properties more especially the abdomen related issues please. Keep it up. May I know the rootstocks on which these are grafted. These grow nicely in subtropical climates as well. God bless. Thanks a lot for being a valuable part in the service of humanity. Heartiest regards from India's State of Himachal Pradesh please. 👌👍❤️🙏🙏

I wish it got cold enough here for Korean pear! I'm going to have to try the 20th century

How old are your trees in this video?

Your videos are very informative. I am about to plant the 20 Century and was wondering what other Asian pear would pair best with that?

@KhangStarr

Жыл бұрын

20th Century are self-fruitful, but with a pair, it would produce even better. Try Shinseiki or Hosui.

Where can we buy 4 in 1?

Can I grow in a container until I'm ready to plant in the ground?

what region are you located (California) to successfully grow these delicious pear?

You are right! I like Olumpic Korean Giant over all pears! The best of the best over Asian Pears and American Pears!

I'm near San Antonio, heard you were near Houston, just trying to figure out if any will grow for me. Climate wise, because we love pears, but rabbits girdled all my fruit trees in the winter.

I’m a new gardener started just this year, the only eatables I was able to grow is basil, even with that, there’s all kinds of pest problems, so later I’m planting just shrubs and flower trees lol. But they have no practical purpose except eye pleasing and feeding some bees hehe. Are you planing these pear trees where they get full sun, maybe need to avoid afternoon scorched sun? Thank you!
