Duo Fruit Tree – Pear Conference and Louise Bonne of Jersey
Now everyone can grow fruit trees in the minimum of space! These incredible duo fruit trees have been meticulously grafted by highly skilled nurserymen to yield two different pear varieties growing on one rootstock! What's more, the rootstocks are dwarfing, meaning that your trees will always remain compact!They are perfect for anyone who loves the idea of picking their own home-grown fresh fruit, but has limited space. Each of the varieties will produce bumper crops of delicious, full-sized fruit. Because they are already trained into a V shape, they are perfect for growing up a wall or fence. Conference Pear - Produces a large crop of fruits with clear, white flesh that are ready to pick each September. The long, tapering fruits are packed with an irresistible sweetness and lip-smacking juice that will drip from your chin when you bite into a ripe one! Because of its outstanding flavour, it remains the most popular pear grown in Britain by a long measure, both in commercial orchards and home gardens. It is perfect for you to grow because it is very heavy cropping and when picked unripe, is great for keeping for 2 or more months. Crops: September-October Louise Bonne of Jersey - You will struggle to beat the rich, buttery, and juicy taste of these pears! So much so, they are a perfect choice for a sweet dessert pear to finish a home-cooked meal. Good-sized fruit are a pale greenish yellow, with pink-tinged flesh.
