Temboli, also written Tem-bo-li, is a Chinese Asian style pear with rounded green to yellow green fruit rather than the usual elongated pear shape. The flesh is sweet, very juicy and apple like, with a lightly granular texture.

European records describe a productive, relatively compact autumn pear, ripening from mid September into early October and storing for about two months under suitable conditions. It is reported self fertile and disease resistant. Manitoba winter survival and completion of ripening remain under evaluation.

Our fall trees are grafted on Ussurian pear rootstock.

More about this plant

Why the botanical name stays broad

Published catalogues disagree on the species assignment. Pyrus is the defensible name until the ancestry of this Chinese selection is resolved.
