I give it to my Asian species and reds. I have seen no ill effects. Been doing it for years. I only give it as a treat every once in a while when they come in the "Expired" produce boxes from our local farmers market donations.

Oh Kelly wish you were closer I'd give you some fresh ones for free! I have at least 50 pears hanging heavy in my tree and it's natural no fertilizers.

That would be awesome. I Dont give it that much though. They aren't too common here anyways. So when I do get some every once in a while its only a dozen or so. The mountains love em.
