We have an asian pear tree, does it lose it's leaves in the winter?

Question

We live in the SF bay area, just planted an asian pear tree. The leaves are turning which could indicate the change in weather if the tree is suppose to lose it's leaves. If not then I might be watering it too much.

Answer 1

If your area is one where deciduous trees lose their leaves then this one will too. It is NOT an evergreen.
