The Orient is a leaf spot and blight resistant pear tree that produces large, semi-hard fruit. The pears are yellow, sweet and juicy and when they ripen in late Summer, can be used for canning. The Orient requires 350 chill hours. It can self-pollinate or pollinate with the Baldwin, Kieffer or Moonglo. At maturity, it can reach a height between 15 ft. to 20 ft. and a width of 12 ft. to 15 ft.
