Description
One of the earliest pears. A good reliable variety that produces heavy crops of medium sized yellow-green fruits with a red blush.
Delicious, sweet and juicy with a light acid flavour which makes them also suitable for cooking.
- Season of use August - September.
- First introduced 1860, Massachusetts, USA.
- Self Sterile - requires a pollinator (another pear).
- Grown on Quince A rootstock for an ultimate (un-pruned) height of 8 - 12 feet (2.4 - 3.65 metres) but can easily be kept at a height of 6 - 8 feet (1.8 - 2.4 metres).
Recommended by the RHS to be an excellent attractant and nectar source for bees and other beneficial insects.
Recommended by the RHS to assist in encouraging bats into the garden as the flowers are likely to attract moths and other night-flying insects which bats love to eat!
