Lucky Pitman,
I was just reviewing some of my old chats that I saved and came across your comment about Chojuro as your favorite Asian pear.  Remind me what your zone is??  I think you are "north abit"??
I like to plant for zone 4 here in SE Wis but am languishing for an Asian with always question there hardiness here.
Hi, Michelle.
Been out of town, just got back. 
I'm in hot zone 6 - southern west-central KY, just 15 miles or so north of the TN border - about 70 mi. NW of Nashville TN.

Kevin Matthews, at Edible Forest Nursery will be your best bet for real-world experience as to which Asians are reliably hardy in z4.  His website is not currently up, but here's a link to contact info
