Hello, anyone growing pears? I need recommendation on which variety to get for my climate, zone 10a. I want a low chill, sweet, not gritty, no pollinator needed type & if possible, resistant to fireblight. Im asking for a lot, I know.

Thanks for the help!

Southern Bartlett was my favorite..

PFP speaks highly of the Ayer's pear in the south.

Thanks for your advice on pear varieties, Brandon87, Alan & Bamafig. I will look into all three suggestions. I have really been interested in buying a pear tree for a while but theyre not too comon at the local nurseries. In reality I dont know if this is even a good time to find a pear tree... I know nothing about pears. But I like them!! :-D. Thanks, again!

The best pears that I grow are Maxine, Ayers and Pineapple. All meet your
priority list. I can send scion wood.

Thanks for your suggestion and offer. I appreciate it.
