The Dwarf Anjou Pear Tree is known for its large, juicy pears with smooth green skin that may turn slightly yellow as they ripen. The flesh is firm, sweet, and buttery, making these pears excellent for fresh eating, salads, baking, and canning. This dwarf tree has a compact, upright growth habit, perfect for small gardens, patios, and home orchards. In spring, it produces clusters of fragrant white blossoms that give way to abundant fruit ripening in late summer to early fall.
Mature Height: 8–10 feet
Spacing: 8–10 feet apart
Interesting Information:
Anjou pears are prized for their firm texture and sweet, smooth flavor, which holds up well for baking, cooking, and fresh eating.
This variety is not self-pollinating and requires another compatible pear tree, such as Bartlett, Bosc, or Comice, to ensure good fruit set.
The fruit is typically harvested firm and allowed to ripen off the tree to achieve the best flavor and texture.
Dwarf Anjou trees are reliable producers once established and often bear fruit within 2–3 years of planting.
The fragrant spring blossoms attract bees and other beneficial pollinators, enhancing fruit set and garden biodiversity.
The dwarf growth habit allows for easier pruning, harvesting, and maintenance while still producing full-sized, high-quality pears.
Grow Zone: 5–8
