The Pirtle Nursery 3.74 gal. Kieffer Pear Tree is a vigorous tree that produces medium to large fruit. It performs well in hot climates and is an excellent variety for canning, baking and preserves. The Kieffer Pear requires 300 chill hours and another European pear tree as a cross-pollinator, such as another Kieffer Pear or Bartlett Pear tree. This pear fruit tree has small, single white flowers that bloom in the spring, with fresh fruit that ripens during mid-fall. Kieffer Pears are susceptible to blight.
