Collection: Pear Trees

Pears have a place in our cold climate. Unfortunately the selection at your local big box stores and garden centres is small. The standard cultivars that are available are good but don't have the taste, quality and storage abilities that we want out of a pear.  

There is however a special way to harvesting pears. Most pears have to ripen out of the tree. If left to ripen on the branch, they will start to rot from the inside. While the pears still hard, take notice when the skin starts changing colour. This is when you can harvest them. Once harvested, store them on the kitchen counter at room temperature for up to several days or longer. To assess that your pear is ripe, apply gentle pressure on the flesh just below the stem. If it is soft but not too much, it is ready. You can place your pears in the fridge to stop them from further ripening. 

Pears prefer well drained fertile soil and should be planted 6 meters (20 feet) apart. Fruit production begins around 7 years on average for pears, we do however have some varieties which are precocious (early bearing).

Pear trees are sold as 1 year old whips between 0.3-1 meter (1-3 feet) in height. Our pear trees are grafted on full sized Siberian Pear rootstock.
