I will have to try the Fuji. I do have a pear (Olton Broussard) that looks like a green to green yellowish apple that also quite good and taste like my chinese pears. None of my Anas or Dorsets have yielded very much and I would like to graft over to something else. So far the Joy apple is my only success.
