The Details

Pyrus ussuriensis – Manchurian Pear Profile

Pyrus ussuriensis – Manchurian Pear is a medium to large deciduous tree best known for its early spring flowering, dense, symmetrical crown, and fiery autumn display. Maturing to 9–12 metres tall and 6–8 metres wide, it is a strong performer in urban, residential, and rural landscapes, bringing elegance and shade to both formal and natural designs.

In early spring, the tree erupts in masses of pure white flowers, followed by broad, glossy green leaves that provide dense summer coverage. As temperatures cool, the foliage turns stunning shades of orange, red, and burgundy, making it one of the most eye-catching trees of the season.

Pyrus ussuriensis is extremely cold hardy, drought-tolerant once established, and adaptable to loam, clay, or sandy soils—making it a highly flexible and low-maintenance choice. It holds a strong central leader and grows with a naturally uniform shape, often requiring minimal formative pruning.
