The Bartlett pear is the most common pear worldwide. It is a European pear with large yellow fruit and smooth, juicy white flesh. Fruit gardeners and orchard growers favor the Bartlett pear due to its high productivity and ability to start bearing fruit at a young age. Fruit trees need a minimum of 6-8 hours sunlight daily, and need water regularly. They are not drought tolerant. At maturity, it can reach a height and width between 12-20 feet. Ripens mid-August to mid-September. Requires 500-600 chill hours. They require a cross-pollinator with another European pear such as Baldwin, Hood, or Tenn. The Barlett pear is hardy in USDA Zones 5-7. It is shipped in a #5 pot with a minimum height of 24 inches.
