Sweet Juicy Pear is Crisp Like an Apple

The Hosui pear is consistently awarded “best tasting pear” by growers and consumers! They’re large, juicy and round, like an apple, not “pear-shaped.” Another similarity to apples – they have a crispy texture. While they start out pale green, like your typical pear, they turn a golden, bronze hue as they ripen.

Cold Hardy. Heat Tolerant. Easy to Grow

Hosui Pears are cold hardy and will thrive as far north as Zone 5. You can grow them in warmer climates with ease - all the way to zone 9, as they’re heat tolerant, and drought-resistant!

Your Hosui Pear tree has been nurtured by our growers for years. We don’t ship them until they’re ready to take root in your yard. You can expect them to peak in mid-August. These pears ripen on the tree and keep up to two months.

More Than a Pear Tree – It’s a Striking Ornamental!

You’ll enjoy watching all the visual transitions your tree goes through! In early spring, it will produce dainty white flowers on the branches before it starts to leaf. The glossy, dark green foliage that emerges quickly changes to a coppery bronze color in mid spring. The outstanding fruit comes in mid-late summer, and as autumn approaches, the tree will reward you with bright red leaves.

A Healthy Twist

Eating healthy has never tasted so good! Hosui Pears are only around 50 calories and are a good source of vitamin C as well as fiber. The Hosiu Pear adds a special zest to salads and are exquisitely paired with all types of cheese.

While the Hosui Pear is one of the best fruits picked straight from the tree – their sweet and tart undertones make them impeccable in pies and deliciously add moisture to baked bread and muffins.

Order your own Hosui Pear tree and you’ll have crisp, juicy, healthy pears the very next summer!

    Pear flowers

    Very pretty flowers and nicely wrapped when it was delivered. I got 6ft tree May 2025. This is how it looks like almost 1 year later. Hopefully it bears fruit soon! Although it might be a little too soon. It survived the multiple New York snow storms.

    Media from review #1
    Fast Growing Trees Plant ExpertHi Mei, we’re glad to hear your tree is thriving and blooming. Hosui pears can begin producing fruit as early as the next season, with larger crops as the tree matures. Make sure it’s getting full sun, consistent watering, and well-draining soil to support fruit development. Let us know if you need further help!

    Great customer service, beautiful trees

    This is our third tree we’ve ordered from Fast Growing Trees. We received our HoSui Pear tree and were concerned that the roots did not look very established. I reached out to customer service with some photos and they promptly sent a gorgeous replacement that even had some fruit already. Very happy with our new tree and our experience with customer service.

    Fast Growing Trees Plant ExpertHi Christine, we truly appreciate you coming back to us for your trees. We’re glad we could help resolve your concern and that your new Hosui Pear tree is off to a great start.

    Response

    So far it's a skinny twig. . . no promise

    Fast Growing Trees Plant ExpertHi Emily, thank you for sharing your feedback. As a nursery, we focus on growing healthy root systems and strong foundations, which can sometimes result in young trees starting off smaller. Your Hosui Asian Pear is still in the early stages, and with proper care, it should grow into a strong, thriving tree. We're here for any tips or guidance as it continues to establish.

    Planted in Summer

    I bought this tree and planted in the heat of Summer and it still flowered and sprouted new growth within a few weeks. I’m excited to see what happens next Spring!
