Pear : Williams' Bon Chretien

  • Crops in : Mid to late September

Description

An early fruiting variety producing large yellow non-gritty fruits with an excellent sweet and juicy flavour. These strong growing trees are partially self-fertile but make the ideal planting partner for Conference or Concorde to aid pollination and increase the yield.

Propagated onto 'Quince A' rootstock to produce a tree with moderate vigour and promote fruiting at an early age.

The perfect pear for poaching and preserving as well as eating fresh from mid to late September.

Bred in Great Britain.

Growing Instructions

Pears are very versatile, grown as a bush, planted in an open but sheltered position as a cordon or espalier against a warm south, or west facing wall or fence. They will also fruit very well planted in large containers on the patio.
