Pear Trees
Pears have been enjoyed for many many years. They make a great snack as well as jellies and preserves. They will grow and produce best in well-drained sandy-loamy soil. They will also grow in clay soil, light sandy soil or dry soil with irrigation. Don’t over fertilize, this can promote fire blight. We recommend using a good spray program on pears that includes the use of Fire Blight spray They like full sun and a Ph 6.0 - 6.5. Plant 15-20 feet apart. Pears require cross-pollination from different variety. The number of chill hours needed will be listed by each variety Fruit yield: 3-4 bushels. Will bears in 2 – 3 years Zone Range 4-9.
