- A reliable and heavy cropper, it thrives in the UK climate, producing large pears within two years.
- Exceptionally versatile, it's ideal for cooler, shadier spots and north-facing walls, making it highly recommended for Scotland and northern regions.
- Winner of the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit.
- Can be trained as a cordon, fan, or espalier to suit your space.

- Planting Time: Can be planted at any time of year.
- Pruning: Prune each winter to ensure the tree maintains a productive shape, which can improve yields and prevent disease. Trees are expertly pruned before shipping to encourage robust growth.
