Bear Creak used to sell them on Harken or something like that and I have a couple trees from them that have done extremely well and survived -22 F about ten years ago.That's Harbin pear, P.ussuriensis.
My original Asians, also from Bear Creek, are on Harbin. Of course, winter hardiness is not really a consideration here in hot zone 6 setting.
I've got several Asians on OHxF 513. I can't say that they're excessively dwarfing here - but, again, my winter temps aren't typically a challenge for them.
