Properties and uses:
The Common Pear tree produces a large quantity of juicy, sweet and sour fruit with a white flesh. The pears are medium-sized and generally ripe at the beginning of November. They keep well and are mainly used for juicing. After pressing, the juice is used to make “poiré”, a sparkling alcoholic drink, and after processing, pear brandy is obtained.
This Pear tree is not self-fertile, so it is necessary to plant other pear tree varieties nearby, which bloom at the same period. For example, varieties such as Beurré Hardy, Conférence, Doyenné du Comice, Jules Guyot, William’s, William’s Rouge.
