…

Sadly uncommon around here. Pears are a great fruit for Central Vermont. Pears suffer from fewer pests and diseases than apple trees, making it easier to grow high quality fruit. Plant 20-30 ft apart.

Pear Pollination: Plant at least two different varieties of pear. Some trees produce very little pollen and make poor pollinators. If planting a poor pollinator, plant at least two other varieties. The more the merrier!
