Planting & Care

A favourite since the 1700s, 'Williams' Bon Chrétien' is a classic English pear producing large, juicy, yellow fruits with a sweet, rich flavour.
This dependable and productive variety has been recognised with the RHS Award of Garden Merit.
Delicious eaten fresh from the tree and an excellent choice for poaching.
Enjoy an early harvest, with fruit ready to pick from late August.
Grown on Quince A rootstock, this tree remains a manageable size (4x4m), making it ideal for average gardens.
Partially self-fertile (Pollination Group 3), it will produce a more reliable crop if a pollination partner from the same or an adjacent group is nearby.
Your tree arrives expertly pruned to encourage a strong, bushy shape and is supplied in an EcoPot™, which uses 70% less plastic and promotes healthier root growth.

Species: Pear
Flowering Time: April
Harvest Time: August, September
Planting Time: January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December
Position: Full sun
Eventual Spread: 4m
Hardiness: Fully Hardy

Planting: Can be planted year-round. Choose a position in full sun. Prefers fertile, well-draining soil but can tolerate clay if steps are taken to improve drainage.
Pollination: Partially self-fertile (Group 3). For the best yields, plant near another pear tree from pollination group 2, 3, or 4. In urban areas, a suitable partner is likely already within a mile.
Pruning: Prune in winter to maintain a productive shape, improve airflow, and encourage good yields.
Pest & Disease: This variety has good disease resistance. Pruning to increase air circulation helps prevent bacterial diseases. Keep an eye out for rare issues like fire blight or pear scab.
Hardiness: Fully hardy in the UK and does not require frost protection.
