View prices and availability
Pyrus sinkiangesis is a small tree somewhat irregular, broadly pyramidal, semi-open crown 6-9 m tall. The leaves are oval with a distinctly long pointed tip. In autumn, the leaves turn deep purple-red. The tree flowers in April with clusters of 4-7 white flowers. The individual flowers are about 2 cm in size. The pears are edible. They are not very large and green in colour, often with bronze-coloured spots.
Pyrus sinkiangesis is native to northern China. It is sometimes believed to be a complex hybrid combining the species Pyrus armeniacifolia, P. communis and perhaps P. pyrifolia. The tree can be used both for ornamental value (blossom and autumn colour) and for fruiting. Hardiness zone 5.
Our trees can only be planted when they don't have any leaves. Due to the this we will start delivering again from November 2025.
