If you were only able to plant one variety of fruit tree what would it be. I don't mean apple, pear,persimmon, or plum I mean actual variety. I'd have to say I'd go with keiffer pear.
I have no long term experience with them but my research points me to Olympic asian pear. Great for critters and personal consumption;)
Latest dropping, tough as nails, and keeps longer than euro pears...
I have a couple Korean giants, a couple Shinko, Galloway, orient, and a few other varieties but the keiffers seem to drop during the season , be very disease resistant, produce well, and just generally grow well down here. I have good growth out of others but it's doing the best so far.
