Zarechnaya, also recorded as Kompaktnaya, produces golden yellow pears that may develop an orange blush. The tender cream coloured flesh is sweet with a little tartness, suited to fresh eating and baking.
Harvest is generally listed for late August to early September, with up to about a month in cold storage. It needs another compatible pear for pollination. The cultivar has a compact rounded crown, but it is not a dwarf tree; finished size depends on rootstock and growing conditions.
Our fall trees are grafted on Ussurian pear rootstock.
Cold Hardiness Zone: 3
Botanical name: Pyrus
Rootstock: Ussurian
Pollination: Requires another compatible pear.

Reports of Zarechnaya's self fertility conflict. It is described as both self sterile and partly self fertile. Do not rely on one tree alone. Another compatible pear is the prudent choice.
