Favoritka Pear Tree

The Favoritka Pear, known as one of the best pears grown in the Ural mountains in Russia, is a cultivar bred by T. Clapp and Russian breeders in the mid 20th century. This variety is quite popular and is included in the State Register of Breeding Achievements, recommended for cultivation in the Ural region. The Favoritka Pear tree is known for producing large, yellow-green pears with a distinctive dark pink blush. These pears are not only visually appealing but also offer a buttery sweet and savory flavor, making them excellent for both fresh eating and preserving.

A significant aspect of the Favoritka Pear is its size, with fruits averaging around 200 grams each. This variety is self-sterile, meaning it requires cross-pollination from another pear tree in order to produce fruit. The trees are known for their abundant yield of pears. Hardy and suitable for cold climates, the Favoritka Pear thrives well in Zone 3, making it a resilient choice for growers in cooler regions.
