Fruit

• Crops in : Late September

Description

Pear Delsanne® is a small tree producing unusual round shaped fruits with a smooth tan skin and exceptional flavour.

Ready to harvest in late September, and if stored in a cool place will keep until at least February.

These stunning trees take four full seasons of training and pruning by skilled nurserymen to reach their unique form - but are well worth the wait. Guaranteed to look just as good in the bare winter months as they do clothed in blossom in the spring and will become your pride and joy both because of their architectural shape and also their ability to crop large quantities of fruit in a small space.

Propagated onto 'Quince A' rootstock to produce a tree with moderate vigour and promote fruiting at an early age. Being slightly older trees these will bear fruit quickly even in their first year of planting, and by simple spur pruning you will keep your investment in good shape for years to come.

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.
