Most pears that bloom at the same time are suitable pollinators. With small amounts of nectar and low sugar content, pears require more pollinators and bees than any other fruit for commercial production. The homeowner should have two different varieties to get good fruit set. Pears require a moist but well drained soil, avoid poor sandy soils. Timing of harvest is important as fruit left on the tree too long will turn brown inside.
