Krazulya Pear vs Limelight Hydrangea
Pyrus Krazulya
Hydrangea paniculata Limelight
NOT AVAILABLE THIS SEASON
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.
Limelight Hydrangea is a flowering shrub that is known for its green flowers. As they mature, the flower colour changes from a pale green to a creamy white, followed by shades of pink and red. Hydrangea flowers persist longer compared to other flowering shrubs, blooming from late July into fall. They are a popular choice for flower arrangements.
The Limelight Hydrangea can be grown as a stand alone shrub, as a hedge, or incorporated into a flower garden. Blooms occur on new wood, so regular pruning is encouraged in late winter. This is an award winner from the Proven Winners® collection.
