Hello Nafexers,
I recently purchased a Ya Pear at the supermarket and was surprised with its sweetness,
crispness and juiceyness. I drew some comparisons to Honeycrisp apples.
Not thinking much would result from it, I put six of the seeds from the core in the soil
around my sprouting Turkish Fig. Behold the emergence of 5 new seedlings!
I tried looking on the INet for growing techniques, but came back empty handed. Should
these seedlings be treated as normal N Am pears? Are there special considerations for
soil, sun and moisture? How big does the tree get? Should the seedlings be planted in
their final resting ground this year? May I expect true fruit to set, and in how many years?
