Description
- A red version of Williams Bon Chretien, one of the most popular dessert pear varieties. This is just as sweet but has a lovely red blush
- The fruit is easy to pick and has melt in the mouth juicy flesh. Tasty eaten fresh but good for poaching and preserves too
- A strong, reliable cropper
- Awarded RHS Plants for Pollinators status
- A mid season variety, ready to harvest from September
- Blossom is resistant to late frosts
- Our trees are professionally pruned before dispatching. This formative pruning can involve cutting the main leader, if the expert tree growers decide this will produce a better shaped tree. This can stop the tree becoming “leggy”, and promote stronger, bushier growth.MORE
