An Adaptable, Gorgeous Tree Fit For Every Landscape

The Autumn Blaze Flowering Pear Tree is a magnificent choice for every yard. This highly adaptable, durable and resilient tree is unmistakably stunning throughout the year. You can't go wrong by adding this tree to your landscape.

It has remarkable ornamental value in every season. To bring year-round, striking visual interest to your yard, plant as many Autumn Blaze trees as your heart desires. Perfect as a compliment to large evergreen trees or as a central showpiece, the Autumn Blaze will look magnificent all throughout the year.

This tree produces prolific blooms in the spring. The spring delivers gorgeous, fragrant white flowers to the Autumn Blaze. You'll have so many flowers, you may not even see the branches of your tree. Often appearing before the leaves fully unfurl, the blooms create an incredible contrast against the bare branches or the glossy, dark green leaves.

The autumn show gives this tree its name. Of course, in the fall you'll understand the spectacular namesake of the "Autumn Blaze." The dark green foliage transforms into a showstopping deep, crimson. Your neighbors won't be able to look away from the sensational, fiery colors in your yard.

Create your own uses for the Autumn Blaze. You could create a grand entrance to your home by lining your driveway with several Autumn Blaze trees. You could also create a centerpiece to your landscape by grouping several trees together in your yard, or add contrast by placing Autumn Blaze trees alongside taller evergreens or trees with duller autumn colors. This tree looks stunning, no matter where you place it and it is highly adaptable to your needs.

Plant it anywhere and watch it grow. The Autumn Blaze Flowering Pear tree is extremely durable and can grow in a number of climates and soil types. From dry desert landscapes to hot, humid, sandy climates to even the cold, windy northern mountains, this tree will thrive.

This is the prize pear tree! Not only can this tree survive in a variety of climates, it is the most cold hardy flowering pear tree there is. Additionally, the branches are firmer than most pear trees, allowing it to have more wind resistance. You may have had other flowering pear trees fail in the past, but don't be fooled by the beautiful, delicate foliage - the Autumn Blaze is tough and strong.

The Autumn Blaze is an easy choice. No, you won't get any edible pears from this tree, but you also won't get all the upkeep. Instead, you'll get an easy to care for, fast growing, show stopping tree. Don't be the last in your neighborhood to get this tree; order several today!

Planting & Care

Planting Instructions: Choose a spot in your yard that has full sun exposure. If planting several trees together, be sure to leave at least 15' between each tree to give the tree room to grow. The Autumn Blaze will not thrive in shallow soils, so be sure to choose a place that gives your tree the depth it needs to grow. When planting your tree, find the root flare zone. This is the spot where the very top root of the rootball meets the trunk of the tree. Do not place any soil amendments like compost or fertilizer in your soil. Simply dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and just as long. Place your tree in the hole, making sure the root flare zone is right above the surface of the ground. Do not compact the soil; keep it loose. Make sure there are no competing weeds around the tree and then add a 3" layer of mulch around the tree, extending 6ft. out from the trunk. Keep a 10" area around the tree trunk free from mulch.

Watering: For zones 4-6, you will need to water your tree once a week for the first year of its life. For zones 6-9, you will need to water your Autumn Blaze tree twice a week for 6 months. When watering, lightly add 1-2 gallons over the rootball for every 1 inch of diameter of the tree. In other words, if your tree trunk is 3 inches in diameter, you will water with 3-6 gallons. During the first 5-7 years of your tree's life, water once every 3 weeks in warm weather and once every 6 weeks in cold weather. After this, the tree will survive on natural rainfall.

Maintenance: There is very little maintenance with the Autumn Blaze. If the branches of the other Autumn Blaze trees you have planted begin to rub against each other, prune those branches. There is no other pruning required with this tree.

So far so good!

I have been extremely satisfied with this & other purchases I've made with FGT! It arrived on-time & in excellent condition! Because of the unusually arid conditions we've experienced this summer, I have been carefully monitoring this new addition along with all my other trees/ shrubs on my property.

Autumn Blaze Flowering Pear Tree

I bought these trees during a weekend where we had 90 degree weather. I was very worried that the trees would not be able to withstand the high temperatures or the shock of being moved especially because they were ordered online but both trees I purchased are thriving! I am very happy with my purchase.

Autumn blaze flowering pear

The tree came intact and is really beautiful. This time of year leaves are green so will have to wait till next spring for the show to arrive. I plan to purchase more of these after this experience.
