Krazulya Pear

The Crimson Passion Cherry is a hardy deciduous hybrid dwarf Sour Cherry. This medium-sized self-pollinator produces tart, bright red fruits in large clusters in late summer that are perfect for jams, pies and jellies. Crimson Passion Cherry is ideal as a landscape or orchard tree.

Krazulya Pear was developed in Russia and is said to be one of the most delicious and hardiest pears. The fruit is juicy and buttery, with a slight spice undertone.“Krazulya” - meaning “beauty” in Russian - is true to its name in that the pears are a luscious yellow with bright, red cheeks.

Krazulya Pears are unique as they can be eaten directly off the tree and don’t need time to ripen. The downside is that the pears only keep for 1-2 weeks.

For fruit production, another pear variety is required for cross-pollination. Can be paired with Beedle Pear or Ussurian Pear.
