Du pear is adaptable, light-loving, cold-resistant, drought-resistant, waterlogging-resistant and barren-tolerant, and can grow normally in neutral soil and saline-alkali soil. The soil salt content in the area where the author is located is 0.4%, and the pH value is 8.5. However, without soil improvement and guest soil and other technical measures, the planted du pear can grow vigorously.

The reproduction of du pear is mainly sowing, and it can also be pressed, which can be stacked indoors after seed collection in autumn, so that the pulp will soften naturally, and it should be stirred frequently during the period to prevent it from rotting. After the pulp becomes soft, it is scrubbed in water, the seeds are fished out, and put in the indoor shade to dry. In November, the soil is mixed with sand before freezing, and the ratio of wet sand to seeds is 31. After mixing well, put in the outdoor shady storage pool, in order to prevent dehydrated seeds. Can cover about 10 cm of wet sand, after thawing in spring next year, it should be stirred in time to prevent mildew and deterioration, the time is once a day, after planting buds, sowing in time, about 20 days can be germinated, about 5 years can blossom.

Du pear is not only strong in nature, but also lax in water and fertilizer requirements, coupled with its beautiful tree shape and white color, it is widely used in saline-alkali areas in the north. It can be used not only as shelterbelt, soil and water conservation forest, but also for the greening of street courtyards and parks. It is a good tree species worth popularizing.
