LOOK! Lovely Trees 
That Let Your Grass Grow! 
Stern’s Geneva- Grown 
Heavy Bearing PEARS 
Delicious ... Easy to Grow... Ideal for 
Your Home 
Here is the fruit tree for your front yard! Stern’s 
Pear Trees will produce bushels of juicy delicious 
Pears, yet they require little space. Their airy foliage 
which casts only moderate shade—combined with 
their deep rooting habit—actually encourages a fine 
thick growth of lawn grass not only under the tree 
but right up to the trunk itself. 
Their lovely shape, covered with thousands of 
snow-white billowing blossoms is a springtime de- 
light. As the buds swell and Pears develop, the 
branches start to bend gracefully with the weight 
of the fruit. Truly Stern's Geneva-grown Pear trees 
are a wonderful ornamental tree. In addition to 
beauty, home-grown Pears are a great delight. Even 
without special care, these Pears are juicy, sweet 
and tender. 
Pears require cross-pollination. Plant 2 trees of 
different varieties. Bartlett and Seckel do not cross- 
pollinate, but any other variety will pollinate them.
