Planting & Care

The UK's most popular pear, ideal for gardens of any size and container planting.
Produces distinctive pears with incredibly soft, juicy flesh and an aromatic flavour.
A reliable choice for the UK climate, thriving even in cooler, shadier spots like north-facing walls.
Consistently provides abundant yields of large pears, often within two years of planting.
Winner of the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit.
Can be trained into various shapes including cordon, fan, or espalier.
Expertly pruned before delivery to encourage a strong shape and bushy growth.

Species: Pear
Flowering Time: March, April
Harvest Time: September, October
Planting Time: All year round
Sunlight: Full sun
Eventual Spread: 4m
Hardiness: Fully Hardy (Doesn't require any protection from frost)
Tasting Notes: Soft, juicy flesh with a mildly sweet, aromatic flavour
Fertility: Partially self-fertile. Will fruit better when pollinated by another Pear tree within a mile radius that flowers at the same time.
Pollination Group: 4
Uses: Eating, Poaching

Watering: Water in thoroughly when planting. A container-grown tree needs watering every other day for the first few months, reducing to twice a week until autumn. Once established, water only during dry spells. It is better to water heavily and less frequently.
Feeding: No feeding is required.
Pruning: Prune each winter to ensure the tree maintains a productive shape, which can improve yields and prevent disease.
