Description
- A highly ornamental and edible Nashi pear also known as the 20th century pear
- Easy to grow and reliable, with heavy crops
- Spherical fruits have crisp, white flesh with a mild and aromatic flavour
- Not self fertile – needs a pollination partner
- Mid season harvest from August to October
- 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
