 Pyrus communis 'Arganche'

Among the most flavorful early-ripening pears at the National Pear Germplasm Repository in Corvallis, OR. This dainty yellow pear from Yugoslavia, also called Mustafabey in Turkey, Zaharoasa de Vara in Romania, and Klementinka in Bulgaria, ripens in mid July there. Fruit is small like Seckel, yellow-skinned with red blush. Flesh is smooth, sweet, juicy, and firm.

Arganche is a naturally compact tree due to relatively short internodes, has abundant fruiting spurs, and is consistently productive. Resistant to scab in most areas. 

Cold Hardy to USDA Zone: 4

Mature Size:  15' (Semi Dwarf)

Sun: Full Sun

Ripening Time: Very Early - July in many areas

Pollination: Needs a Pollinizer

Semi-Dwarf Rootstock: OHxF87

Homegrown Fresh Fruit

Everything shipped well and is in the ground. I ordered an additional peach tree and will add it to my stock of trees and berries that I have planted over the years. What is the replacement policy. I have an apple tree going on year two and it died out

Love this pear

Just ate my first harvest (late July in Vancouver WA)! Absolutely delicious. An attractive, naturally neat small tree--beautiful, fragrant small pears with nice floral flavors. Interesting swollen branch tips lead to strong, robust branches. Slow to grow but needed almost no pruning.
