Dig a hole slightly wider than the root ball, backfill with amended soil, and water thoroughly to settle the soil. Water regularly during the first growing season and maintain moderate moisture throughout the year. Since Bosc pears require cross-pollination from a compatible variety, plant a secondary pear tree nearby for optimal fruit production. Monitor ripeness by gently pressing near the stem—the fruit should yield slightly to thumb pressure while maintaining its firm structure.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Florida Plant Nursery","offers":[{"title":"5 Gallon","offer_id":45814383083706,"sku":"31103","price":509.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/3520\/4026\/files\/bosc-pear-tree.jpg?v=1777510191","url":"https:\/\/floridaplantnursery.com\/products\/bosc-pear-tree","provider":"Florida Plant Nursery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
