So....
I decided to have a little fun & tried to sprout some Asian Pear seeds, which I harvested from the fruit itself. This was store-bought fruit (not wild).
Anyways, to my surprise they not only sprouted, but they seem to be growing quite well. Based off my recollection of the Asian Pears physical appearance, I'm inclined to say it was the "Chojuro" species/type.
Well, I've planted three of them & they seem to be growing fine. They're progressing at a fairly quick rate, but oddly enough....none of my four plant ID apps recognize them as Asian Pears.
To anybody who is well versed with Asian Pears (specifically), do these look like Asian Pear tree seedlings to you????
I mean.....I know for a fact that the seeds came from an Asian Pear. I'm the one who harvested the seeds & planted them, but my plant ID apps are all suggesting they're either "Lambsquarters" or "Fig-leaf goosefoot".
Thoughts???
