    The Chastity Pear is a highly infertile pear cultivar making it a great replacement for old pear trees that are in decline. Though infertile, it still blooms prolifically so you can enjoy the bright white blooms everyone loves. In fall you will get mixes of reds, oranges, and yellows giving it great multi season interest. Use them to line a driveway or as a specimen tree in a larger garden bed.
