Flordahome Pear Tree – Pyrus communis ‘Flordahome’

Flordahome Pear is a low-chill pear variety developed for warm Southern climates and well suited for North Florida home orchards. This Florida-friendly pear is valued for its low chill requirement, white spring blooms, and fruit that can be used for fresh eating, canning, cooking, baking, preserves, and pear honey.

Flordahome Pear is a good choice for edible landscapes, backyard gardens, small farms, and home orchards where traditional high-chill pears may not perform well. It grows best in full sun with well-drained soil and benefits from planting near another compatible pear variety for better fruit production.
