Stark® Custom Graft® 2-N-1 Pear Tree
Description
Twice the pears in half the space! Through the miracles of horticultural science, we graft two true-to-parent scions onto one sturdy rootstock, and the result is two pears growing on one tree. Once mature, each tree will provide you with two distinctly different varieties of sweet, juicy pears. Between your pair of pears, you will have all you can handle for luscious fresh-eating, canning, preserves and desserts. No need to plant a separate tree for pollination, they will cross-pollinate one another. For ripening times see individual characteristics.
