Pear Trees

Grow Your Own Pear Trees at Home

Sample the sweet taste of homegrown pears to cap off the seasonal performance of your very own pear tree. In spring, pear trees burst into clouds of white flowers that attract pollinators, followed by fresh green foliage and, in time, crisp, juicy pear fruit hanging proudly on the tree. From classic orchard-style planting to patio-friendly forms, pear trees suit gardens of all shapes and sizes.

Modern pear varieties are tougher and more adaptable than many gardeners expect. They cope well with the UK climate, handle cold winters with ease, and once established, require very little fuss. Whether planted in the ground or trained flat against a wall or fence as an espalier pear tree, pear trees offer structure, seasonal interest and the satisfaction of harvesting your own pears straight from the garden. With careful breeding, many pear types remain compact, making them suitable even for smaller gardens and courtyards.

"If you've never bitten into a perfectly ripe pear straight from the tree, you're in for a real treat! Growing your own pear trees is not only incredibly rewarding, but it also means you get to enjoy the freshest, juiciest fruit - far better than anything from the supermarket. Whether you fancy a classic, buttery Conference or a crisp, refreshing Doyenne du Comice, we’ve got just the tree for you. Plus, pear trees are easier to grow than you might think and are surprisingly adaptable, thriving in gardens of all sizes. Give it a go - you won’t regret it!"

More About Pear Trees

Choosing the Right Pear Tree for Your Garden

When selecting a pear tree, start by thinking about space and how you would like it to grow. Traditional bush and pyramid forms suit borders and lawns, while espalier pear trees are ideal where space is limited or where you want to create a productive, showy feature along a sunny wall. Patio-grown pear trees also thrive in large containers, making homegrown pears achievable even without a lawn.
There is a wide range of pear varieties to choose from, each with its own flavour, texture and harvest time. Popular types of pears include sweet dessert pears for eating fresh and firmer varieties that work beautifully for cooking. Well-loved options such as Comice pears are prized for their rich flavour, while Concorde pear trees offer reliable crops and excellent disease resistance. Choosing a mix of varieties can extend your harvesting season and improve pollination.
Pear trees prefer a sunny, sheltered position and well-drained soil, but they are generally forgiving and easy to grow. Most benefit from light annual pruning to maintain shape and encourage fruiting spurs. Once settled, they reward gardeners year after year with dependable crops and minimal maintenance, making them a great choice for both beginners and experienced growers.
