Shohin_Pyrus pyraster_European wild pear
Pears and cherries are trees of my childhood. At my Grandparents there used to be an very old pear with small fruit. Was it a P. pyraster? Don't know. I only remember the starlings singing in the morning somewhere inside the crown near their nesting box... There are so many things we would like to know but the people who could help you with that left this side of river many years ago... A bit of the history of this tree: Air layered back in 2019 from a donor tree. Spring 2025 Height: 20 cm Pot: Jakub Malcharek. The colour of this growing pot reminds me the area where I search for my mahaleb or pears. Dry slopes with scattered reddish rocks and tiny vegetation flowering in the spring. As a display pot I will select probably slightly more masculine, smaller and darker pot. One day perhaps
