Planting & Care

Ideal for small spaces, cordon trees let you grow multiple varieties where only one standard tree might fit, producing a high yield of fruit.
Choose from celebrated varieties like the reliable ‘Concorde’, the aromatic French 'Doyenné Du Comice', or the classic sweet ‘Williams' Bon Chrétien’.
Select varieties hold the prestigious Royal Horticultural Society’s Award of Garden Merit for their outstanding flavour and performance.
Your tree arrives expertly pre-shaped into its cordon form by our growers, ready for planting.

Flower Colour: Attractive white blossoms appear in spring

Soil Type: Any fertile, well-drained soil

Planting: Plant your pear tree at any time of year in a sunny spot with fertile, well-drained soil.
Summer Pruning: To maintain the cordon shape, prune annually. In late August, trim new shoots longer than 20cm (8 inches), cutting them back to one leaf beyond the basal cluster of this year's growth.
Winter Pruning: If fruit-bearing spurs become too crowded over time, you can thin out the older, less productive ones during winter.
