Wild pear trees will be available on April 1st.
The wild pear trees for sale are grown from seed. Therefore, each tree will be a unique and one-of-a-kind new Pear variety. These trees will all produce pears edible to a wide array of wildlife. My main focus is having a tree that supplies a fruit of size for deer. Each tree will have many variations, such as fruit size, drop times, taste, and disease resistance.
No one in the world can tell you exactly what a tree grown from seed will do. I’ve grown a lot of seedlings to see what kind of fruit I would get, and finally, I have a wild pear that I’ve grown enough to see that you will be getting some great trees! I’ve never offered wild pears because of the influence of Bradford across the US. I didn’t want you planting “wild pears” and ending up with what will likely be tiny pea-size junk or invasive. These wild pears are different, and I wouldn’t be surprised if some of the best new pear cultivars of the future are grown from these wild pear seedlings being offered.
Wild pears will reach a mature height of 20-30′, growing well in almost any soil conditions other than wet soil. Like any tree grown, whether from seed or grafted, they will produce faster in more fertile soil. Yet, these pear seedlings can grow in the poorest soils with low ph and fertility. In fertile soil, you will see them produce some fruit at year 3 or 4. If you plant in very poor soil, it may be year 5 or 6. These wild pears will grow fast and have substantial size and height on the tree by this time. Wild pears are suitable for plant hardiness zone 4b-8.
Wild pears are pruned back to 2-3′ well rooted with a diameter of 3/8”+ and 3-4′ 1/2”+ diameter with the terminal bud attached.

PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS FOR WILD WILD PEARS
Plant at least 2 Wild Pear Trees close to each other to ensure pollination. Plant all pears in moist, well-drained soil. A soil pH between 5.8 – 7 with adequate nutrient levels will ensure optimal growth. That said, these are pear trees. They will grow well in about every situation besides wet soil.
If you have not completed a soil test, click here and improve your soil. I would highly recommend doing so. However, if you are not going to, I would recommend mixing 1 ounce for every three sq ft of 0-20-20 granular fertilizer in your soil at the time of planting. The first number tells you the percentage of nitrogen contained in the fertilizer. Nitrogen applied directly to the tree’s roots will cause your tree’s death. Make sure the first number is zero.
Nitrogen is very mobile in the soil, and you can apply a small of nitrogen the following year. The 2nd and 3rd numbers are Phosphorus and Potassium. Apply these two nutrients at or well before planting because they are immobile in the soil. They will need to be mixed in through the soil. We recommend completing a soil test and making amendments for the best results. Applying 1 lb of 10-10-10 for every inch in diameter your tree is. This should be applied in the spring of the following year and each year after planting.
Wild Pear trees require a minimum of 6 hours of sunlight for growth and fruit production. Space trees 15′- 20′ apart and use cages or tree tubes of at least 5′ to protect your trees. This will ensure your deer eat your fruit in a few years, not your trees this year.

Tree care: If you plant your tree up on high dry ground they may need watered through the first summer, if you plant too low and wet your trees may drown. Be careful of the herbicide you may use around the tree (read the label). I want you and your trees to succeed but if you don't tube or cage them the deer will eat your tree that night.

It has over a 6’ circumference at the bottom, stands well over 60’ tall, and is a 60+ year old tree with zero signs of ever having fire blight. When I gained permission to be able to access this tree, the owner stated to me “o that pear, the deer really love that one”. I knew this because I had been watching this pear for years that even in Pennsylvania's heavily pressured rifle deer season it was a given that morning or evening there would be deer under this tree.
This tree produces an abundance of super sweet pears ripening on the tree, remaining palatable and begin dropping mid-November 2 weeks after kieffer pear. Rifle Deer Pear™ only drops for a few short weeks….Therefore making this a powerful and fast draw that typically ends the 1st week of December. As I observed this pear tree dropping, one thing I noted was there were never any on the ground and always loaded with deer sign! This tree produces an abundance of pears annually.
The Rifle Deer Pear™ would be perfect for jams and jellies, but we're not looking for that here. We are looking for a tree that’s highly desirable by deer and this tree is one of them!

This grafted pear tree produces a dessert quality pear. Ayer's pear begins dropping in very late August to the beginning of September and pretty much finishes dropping by the end of September here in central Pennsylvania. As you move this tree south from here drop times will back up, as you move it north it will drop later. This is perfect timing here as the bucks begin shedding velvet and a few begin dispersing and setting up that new home range. I wouldn't create an orchard that didn't have fruit falling at this time so that you may be picking up some new bucks not losing them. Ayer's is just one tree that is a good example of a tree that is capable of doing so. It's a good tree that stays pretty disease free in a no spray situation. This tree has excellent vigor and produces annually. Ayer's pear will reach a mature height of 20'+. Suitable for plant hardiness zones 5-7

A grafted pear that begins to mature in October, they will ripen unevenly, turn yellow with a surprising sweet taste, and begin dropping free from the tree a few at a time in early to mid-October and will continue to drop into the first weeks of November here in the NorthEast. Depending on how far south or north you are located the drop will swing on this tree a few weeks. This Kieffer pear has extreme vigor and is very productive from an early age. The cultivar itself is really too productive if planted in soil with adequate nutrients, it is overbearing with fruit. You will need to remove the fruit from the tree so that it doesn't break so many branches. The disease resistance that I have seen from this tree is at the top in a no spray situation. The tree is annually productive and when put beside the Sweet Advent pear, well they make an incredible pollination and the food source team. These two will make some of the best tasting pears falling when from October until December depending on your location. Kieffer will reach a mature height of 20'+. Plant Hardiness zones 4b-8

Jackpot Pear™ is located in among several thousand wild apple trees, while visiting the area on October 16th. even with many apples on the ground the deer were keeping the pears cleaned up from under this tree. The name came to my mind the second I bit into this pear. Jackpot pear™ has an explosion of taste! This sweet buttery pear has a texture and flavor above that of kieffer pear with a similar drop time as kieffer. This is a tree I wanted to take home, a tree I wanted to add to all of my properties.

Hunter's deer pear™ is a grafted pear tree that is annually productive, producing a European-style pear that produces multiple-sized pears, dropping from October to November. The taste is sweet and above the Kieffer pear in late fall. As with most all late pears, the taste of this one becomes very sweet as starches go to sugars as the natural cold storage process happens in the fall. Hunter's Deer pear™ ripens and falls free from the tree late October into Mid November. The natural process of Hunter's deer pear™ ripening from the coldness of late October makes it a pear that is very desirable by all wildlife and deer alike. The Vigor is extreme, and the tree is overproductive. We would advise thinning fruit to avoid limb breakage. The original tree resides in the direct vicinity of pear trees with fireblight.

This attracts a lot of attention from all wildlife. Harvest Pear™ tree has excellent vigor. The tree is very productive and will benefit from some thinning of fruit to avoid limb breakage as the tree is overbearing. I have witnessed other pear trees meltdown with fireblight in the vicinity of Harvest Pear™, and yet this tree has remained clean.
