When to plant european pear

Minnesota Extension says to plant bare-root pear trees in April or May as soon as the soil can be worked, and to wait until the threat of frost has passed before planting potted trees. Bare-root trees are ordered as dormant stock and shipped in early spring.

European Pear is timed by season rather than your frost dates, so the planting calendar does not generate ZIP-specific dates for it. Check the cited sources below to fine-tune for your area.
