The Korean Giant Asian Pear Tree (Pyrus pyrifolia ‘Korean Giant’) is a premium fruiting tree celebrated for its massive, crisp, and sweet Asian pears that can weigh up to a pound each. Often called “apple pears” for their round shape and refreshing crunch, these golden-brown fruits are exceptionally juicy with a honeyed flavor, making them a favorite for fresh eating, salads, and desserts. Unlike European pears, Korean Giant pears are harvested firm and enjoyed immediately—no waiting for softening—making them convenient and delicious straight from the tree. This late-ripening variety typically produces in September to October, offering large yields of long-storing fruit that can last for months in cold storage. Hardy in USDA Zones 5–9, the Korean Giant Asian Pear grows vigorously, reaching 15–20 ft. tall and wide, with a graceful rounded canopy. It thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, performing best with cross-pollination from another Asian pear variety such as Hosui, Shinseiki, or Chojuro. In addition to its superb fruit, the tree adds ornamental value with showy clusters of white blossoms in spring and attractive green foliage that warms to yellow in autumn. With its outstanding flavor, storage ability, and landscape beauty, the Korean Giant Asian Pear Tree is an exceptional choice for home orchards and edible landscapes.
