The HOUSI pear has a unique texture and taste as it's very sweet and juicy. It's generally round, crisp, firm with a yellowish brown skin. Medium to large fruit. HOUSI is good for cooking and eating fresh. Also know as ASIAN APPLE. This tree does not require pollination but to have larger crops, a cross-pollinator is suggested. I also carry Korean Giant, Shinko and 20th Century Asian Pears and they can be used as cross-pollinators.
