Supplied as a bare root tree pruned to approximately 3-4 ft (90-120cm) tall including roots.
DiscontinuedWith small and hard ruddy brown coloured fruits this is hardly an appealing looking variety, nor is it great for eating. But crushed and juiced this makes the most wonderful Perry (pear cider).
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!
