Yes, although I would emphasize I am growing it because of the serious
fireblight presence in the area. You have plenty of chill for it. If you have no fireblight then you should also consider some of these
European Pears. Another thing to point out here is that
Asian Pears rarely have trouble with fireblight. I am growing Shinseiki. If you had room for two asian pears, the choice would be Hosui and Shinko.
