Concorde Pear Trees

Pyrus Concorde - Mid Season Dessert Pear

Concorde is popular with gardeners. The sweet, soft fruit are good quality and store well. The crop size on a mature tree is excellent. Concorde trees are ideal for growing on wires as an espalier or cordon etc as they have very flexible side shoots.  As a pear it has many of the qualities of Conference and of Doyenne du Comice (which are its two parents). A really sensible choice for an all round eating pear.
