- Introducing 'Concorde', a superb pear variety blending the reliability of 'Conference' with the gourmet flavour of 'Doyenné du Comice'.
- Enjoy the rich, sweet, and honeyed taste of 'Comice' combined with the easy-growing nature and heavy crops of 'Conference'.
- Perfectly suited to the UK climate, it performs well even in cooler, more exposed gardens.
- Harvest your delicious, juicy pears in late October. Picked slightly underripe, they store exceptionally well until January.
- A highly productive tree, yielding up to twice the fruit of its parent varieties, with a good crop expected in just two years.
- Recognised for its outstanding performance with the RHS Award of Garden Merit.
- Grafted onto Quince A rootstock, it remains a compact 4x4 metres, making it ideal for any garden size.
- Arrives professionally pruned to encourage a strong, bushy shape and a healthy start.
- Supplied in an EcoPot™, which uses 70% less plastic, is fully recyclable, and promotes a healthier root system.
- Species: Pear
- Flowering Time: May
- Harvest Time: September, October
- Sun: Full sun
- Eventual Spread: 4m
- Hardiness: Fully Hardy. Doesn't require any protection from frost.
- Soil Type: Happy in most soils. Prefers fertile well draining soil, can also tolerate clay soil but you will need to take some steps to improve drainage in the winter.
- Tasting Notes: Juicy, sweet and aromatic
- Pollination: Will fruit better when pollinated by another Pear tree. Pears in the same pollination group, or one either side, can pollinate each other.
- Uses: Eating
- Planting Time: Can be planted any time of year.
- Watering: Water in thoroughly when planting. Water every other day for the first few months, reducing to twice a week until autumn. In the second year, water only during dry spells. A good soaking less frequently is better than little and often.
- Pest & Disease: Excellent resistance to most problems. Prune to increase air flow, which helps prevent bacterial disease. Keep an eye out for rare issues like fire blight or pear scab.
- Pruning: Your tree arrives professionally pruned. Continue to prune as needed to maintain an open structure for good air circulation.
Product Specifications
