Initially discovered at an old homestead along the Alapaha River, Buck’s Harvest produces a hardy pear with a sweet, crisp flavor. They ripen in late fall and hold on the tree until Thanksgiving! So while we enjoy our Thanksgiving harvest, bucks enjoy a harvest too.
Buck’s Harvest pears are disease resistant with a traditional pear shape. The fruit provides an excellent meal for deer and wildlife and will bring them in throughout the hunting season.
Cold hardy to USDA plant zones 5-9. Required chill hours 250-300. Bears fruit in 3-5 years depending on care and climate. The success of new trees is heavily dependent on the care received during and after planting.

| Pruning | Pear trees should be pruned annually in the winter when they are dormant. Please refer to the Pruning section under "How to plant and grow" in our Learning Center. |
| Fertilization | Do not fertilize at planting. Once the trees are established, fertilize in early spring (Mar-April) as growth begins. Do not fertilize in the fall, which could promote late season tender growth that can be damaged by early frosts. |
| Watering | Newly planted trees should be watered regularly. This is the most critical step in the establishment of your new trees. Please see the Watering section under "How to plant and grow" in our Learning Center. |
