Ubileen Pear 3-5 ft

Large, tender, melting sweet and aromatic. An excellent fruit. Typically listed as zone 5, but ahas done well here for 15 years. Maybe the earliest 'classic' pear (large sweet melting), ripening in Late August to early September. Trees tend to be healthy and vigorous. Maybe not for the coldest locations.

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.

All of the pears have been grafted onto semi-dwarfing rootstocks. OHFx87 is a bit smaller than OHFx97. Unpruned they can still get to 20 ft or more. 

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!

Tips: Prune pears minimally for the first 5-7 years until they are setting large crops, at which point you can begin heavier pruning. If they cannot put energy into fruit, they will forever fight you with vegetative growth.

Thin heavy crops, one fruit per 12 inches of branch is reasonable. Fruit size, quality, and ripening will improve, as will the next years crop.
