Seed quantity: 10 high quality seeds, selected for their vitality.
Plant type and growing cycle: Perennial, deciduous fruit tree. Once established, it provides crops for many years.
Plant height: The tree can reach a height of 4-6 meters if unpruned, but can be managed with appropriate pruning.
Uses: The fruits are excellent for fresh consumption, perfect for snacks or desserts. They are also ideal for making jams, juices, syrups, and cakes. The plant also has ornamental value in the landscape.
Tasting Notes: Coscia pears have a thin, yellowish-green skin that can develop pink hues with exposure to the sun. The flesh is white, juicy, with a fine, slightly grainy texture, extremely sweet and fragrant.
Resistance and Origin: A highly appreciated and cultivated variety in Italy, it adapts well to temperate climates and shows good general resistance to common pear diseases.
Sowing and harvesting period: Sowing, after cold stratification, is recommended in spring. Harvest typically occurs between late July and early August, depending on the local climate.
Optimal conditions for germination: Seeds require a period of cold stratification (about 2-3 months at 2-5°C) to overcome dormancy and promote high germination. They should then be sown in moist, well-drained soil.

Recommended exposure: Full sun for at least 6-8 hours a day is essential for abundant flowering and optimal production of sweet fruits.

Pot or open ground cultivation: Ideal for open ground, but can be grown in large pots in the first few years, provided adequate space and depth are provided for root development.
