The Hood Pear Tree is a standard select pear tree and a long time favorite in the South with its buttery smooth textured flesh. This large yellow-green pear is highly resistant to fire blight making it a long lived and very productive tree. Hood Pear Trees are highly adaptable and can grow in a wider variety of climate and soil conditions than most other pear cultivars. Fruit from Hood Pears Trees ripen mid to late July and requires a pollinator. (150-200 Chill Hours)
