This is probably the best known and best all round pear for growing in the UK.

Reliable and heavy cropping (even in poorer years) it produces long, narrow, yellow-green fruits which are very juicy and sweet.

  • Season of use October - November.
  • First introduced 1885, Hertfordshire, UK. (at the National British Pear Conference - hence its name).
  • Self Fertile - but pollination by another pear will maximise yield.
  • 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.

Supplied as a potted tree pruned to approximately 4 - 5 feet (1.2 - 1.5 metres) tall including pot.
