Yellow Pear Tree – Pyrus spp. 10 Seeds | Cold Hardy | Sweet Dessert Pear Zone 4–9 | Self-Pollinating | Long-Lived Tree

Grow your own delicious yellow pear tree from seed! This listing is for 10 pear tree seeds (not a plant). The mature tree produces very sweet, juicy yellow pears that are far more flavorful than typical store-bought varieties.

The exact variety is unknown but is believed to be similar to Bartlett-type pears. This tree is hardy to -20°F and thrives in Zones 4–9. It is self-pollinating, meaning one tree can produce fruit on its own.

This is a long-lived tree that grows slowly at first but can eventually reach 35–40 feet tall and 20 feet wide, so be sure to allow plenty of space.

Fruit is best harvested when it begins to fall naturally and then allowed to finish ripening indoors. Flavor is sweetest when eaten yellowish-green.

You will receive:
✔️ 10 pear tree seeds
✔️ Cold-hardy yellow pear type
✔️ Sweet dessert-quality fruit
✔️ Secure packaging for safe delivery
