When I moved here 15 years ago, I moved an Asian pear from my old house to here. It has thrived but always bloomed out before any pollenator flowers. It had produced successfully with a matching flowering of a Bartlett at my old place but here the Bartlett I planted flowers a month and a half later. In my attempt to find a pollenator to time well, I have planted three other pear varieties and waited each time to see if it matches with no success- zero. They all bloom like mad but all too late. I remember I moved the original Asian pear because I loved the fruit it produces but I can no longer remember its variety. I will try one more time to plant a compatible tree but this is the last. So anyone know of an early pear with good disease resistance to look into? I don't care that much about the fruit it produces but need that early flowering.

This is from the internet, not my experience • Early Season Varieties: Aurora, Clapp’s Favorite, Max Red Bartlett, Moonglow, Orient, Packham’s Triumph, Red Clapp (Starkrimson), Tyson.
Perhaps your local extension office could help?
Everything I try to move usually doesn't fare well so you must be a pretty good gardener.
Good luck.
