Storage Guidelines

Commercial storage guidance for 'Bartlett' pears. Storage life depends on initial quality, maturity, cultivar and handling; this is not a household shelf-life guarantee.

Bartlett is the most ethylene-sensitive pear and develops dry texture and inferior flavor if held at intermediate cool temperatures instead of just below freezing; it is also highly susceptible to core breakdown. Sensitive to ethylene: keep away from ethylene-producing fruit. Source: USDA Agriculture Handbook 66 (rev. 2016).
