Moonglow Pear Tree – Pyrus communis ‘Moonglow’ Live Tree | 2–3 Ft Tall | Bare Root Fire Blight Resistant | Mid-Season Harvest | European Pear Variety

Plant a reliable and productive fruit tree with this Moonglow Pear Tree, approximately 2–3 feet tall and shipped bare root from our licensed nursery in Southern Indiana.

Moonglow is a European pear variety known for its vigorous growth, dependable harvests, and strong resistance to Fire Blight. In early spring (April–May), the tree produces clusters of aromatic creamy-white flowers, followed by medium to large Bartlett-shaped fruit.

The pears ripen in early to mid-August, about one week before Bartlett. The fruit features smooth yellow skin with a red blush and soft, moderately juicy white flesh with very little grit, making it excellent for fresh eating.

🍐 Important: Moonglow is not self-pollinating. A Bartlett pear tree is recommended nearby for optimal fruit production.

🌿 Trees are shipped dormant (seasonally) and bare root. Roots are carefully wrapped in moist paper and sealed to maintain moisture during shipping.
