Kieffer Pear Tree

Pam's Picks
Kieffer pears are great for snacks, desserts and preserves. You’ll get tons of pears from just one tree. The secret is how we prune your tree, right before we send it to you. This helps your tree grow more branches, resulting in more fruit!

Height After
Pruning:
Heights listed on our site are measured after pruning.

Several of our competitors list sizes before they prune then cut off several feet before shipping. While this reduces their shipping cost, it gives their customer a shorter tree than purchased initially. The tree will likely need an extra year to grow back lost branches and to produce fruit.

Our trees are pruned throughout their lives. This process takes us longer, but gives you more branches, more fruit, and quicker production. The size we advertise is what you receive after pruning. Since we do not include the roots in our height measurements, like many nurseries do, you get even more value.

5-6 ft trees are typically one year older than our 2-4 ft ones and will usually give you fruit the first full season.

It's Easy to Plant your Kieffer Pear Tree
Step 1 - Dig Your Hole
Select a site with full to partial sun and moist or well drained soil for your Kieffer Pear Tree. If you're planting a hedge, mark out a visual guide by placing stakes five to six feet apart and looping string around them. Plant the trees where the stakes are and they'll grow together to make a dense privacy screen. First, dig each hole so that it is just shallower than the root ball and at least twice the width. Then loosen the soil in the planting hole so the roots can easily break through. Use your shovel or try dragging the points of a pitch fork along the sides and bottom of the hole.


Step 2 - Place Your Tree
Next, separate the roots of your Kieffer Pear Tree gently with your fingers and position them downward in the hole. The top of the root flare, where the roots end and the trunk begins, should be about an inch above the surrounding soil. Then make sure the tree is exactly vertical in the hole. To make it just right, use a level.
Step 3 - Backfill Your Hole
As you backfill the hole, apply water to remove air pockets. Remove debris like stones and grass and completely break up any dirt clumps. Water your Kieffer Pear Tree again after the transplant is complete. To help retain some of that moisture, it's recommended that you place mulch around each tree to a depth of 2"-3" up to but not touching the trunk. Organic mulches such as wood chips or pine needles also help to better soil structure as they decompose.

Most useful customer reviews (Kieffer Pear Tree Reviews):
By: Vanessa Johnson
Tree arrived in great condition. We transplanted it in early spring and it has taken off well, with lots of leaf growth during its first year on our property. We are very pleased with it so far. Only reason I didn't give 5 stars is that I'd like to see if/how it produces fruit.
