Kieffer - Sale Price: $78.50 The Pear, Kieffer, Pyrus communis, has a crisp, juicy, white flesh that has a coarse texture. It is a consistent, heavy bearer that ripens late September-October, and it is highly resistant to fire blight. Kieffer Pear is very hardy and tolerates hot climates. It is a medium to large rich-yellow pear, and since the pulp of the Kieffer pear is rather coarse and hard, it is preferable for pear preserves, and freshly cooked pear sauce. Fruit should be picked hard-ripe and allowed to reach its flavor peak stored in a cool place. Kieffer Pear trees are easy to grow, and adapt to most conditions.

Bosc Pear - Sale Price: $78.50 The Bosc pear is sweet and juicy which is why it is considered one of the favorite all time pears. It has a long and narrow shape with brown skin. It has been a favorite of many backyard gardeners for years. The Bosc Pear does require a pollinator which could be a Bartlett or any other pear variety. Harvest time is September and it requires 800 hours of chill time. Make sure your trees are measured from the ground up! While this may sound a bit sneaky, the sad truth is some nurseries try to make their trees seem a lot taller by including the roots in the height. Even worse, others will charge you for a large tree but then hack them down to save money on shipping. We sell our trees with the height measured from the base up.  When you buy a tree from Nature Hills Nursery, it will be the height you paid for after you plant it.  We take pride in delivering the highest quality plants with healthy roots and full, well-established stems and foliage.  You can buy in confidence with our one year plant guarantee. Our fruit trees are always in high demand.  Order now before they sell out!
