With its crisp, juicy texture and sweet, refreshing ‘strawberry-like’ flavour, ‘Kumoi’ stands out as a delectable Asian pear that is growing in popularity. This variety is known for its round, golden-brown fruit with a russet finish, making it both visually appealing and exceptionally tasty. This variety is self-fertile and produces an abundant crop in mid to late summer, ensuring a satisfying harvest for growers. Its adaptability and disease resistance further solidify its status as a reliable and low-maintenance choice for fruit enthusiasts looking to try their hand at something new and rewarding.
When planting incorporate lots of well-rotted garden compost in the planting hole, stake firmly and protect from cold, drying winds. Apply a balanced fertiliser in early spring to support growth and fruiting. Prune in late winter to maintain an open canopy shape and remove any diseased/damaged branches. Thin developing pears in early summer to improve fruit size if needed. Harvest when pears pull off the tree easily.
