Rich, Melting Pears with Exceptional Flavour Large, juicy dessert pears with melting flesh Rich, sweet and aromatic flavour Attractive white blossom in spring Harvest delicious homegrown pears in autumn RHS Recommended: Award of Garden Merit 'Doyenné du Comice' produces large green-yellow pears, often attractively flushed with red. Allow them to ripen after picking and the flesh becomes wonderfully juicy and melting, with the rich, aromatic sweetness for which this classic variety is prized. First raised in France in the 19th century, 'Doyenné du Comice' has remained a favourite for generations. Clusters of pure white blossom cover the branches in spring, attracting visiting pollinators before the fruits begin to develop. Give it a warm, sunny and sheltered position to help the pears ripen and develop their best flavour. The fruits are generally ready to pick in October and are superb eaten fresh once properly ripened. Their exceptionally smooth texture and rich flavour also make them delicious with cheese or in desserts. 'Doyenné du Comice' has received the RHS Award of Garden Merit, recognising its excellent garden performance. How your tree is supplied: Supplied as 5L potted tree, grafted onto Quince A rootstock.
