A balanced, slow-release fertilizer is what is best for Bartlett pear trees (Pyrus communis).

Specifically, Bartlett pear trees cannot tolerate heavy applications of nitrogen fertilizer because of a coupling of lush growth with fire blight. They favor balanced, slow-release 13 (nitrogen) -13 (phosphorus) -13 (potassium) fertilizers. They handle slightly acidic soils. So ammonium sulfate (21-0-0) is their only fertilizer of choice if they are located in alkaline soils, particularly with soil pHs around 7.5 on the 1-14 scale.

Otherwise, Bartlett pear trees may need no fertilizer applications if they grow in grass, ground cover, lawn or turf that is on its own regular fertilizer schedule.
