Pears can be more easily grown than other fruits. They are typically not susceptible to scab so will require little protection from that fungus and most others. Pear psylla is a common insect that can infest pears, but usually is too difficult to control in backyard plantings--- do worry about it too much--- just try to control other common insect pests. Fireblight is the most common pear disease and if it is a concern to you, focus on fire blight resistant varieties. Grandpa has found that many of the Asian pear varieties seem to be easier to grow and more disease free.
