Pear Conference is the most popular and well-known pear variety, prized for its sweet, smooth, and juicy flavour. The long, bell-shaped fruits are versatile, perfect for eating fresh, cooking, or storing through winter. Harvested from October to November, these pears are best picked slightly under-ripe and allowed to ripen slowly in a cool place. Its dependable cropping and classic taste make it a must-have for any garden. This easy-to-grow pear tree thrives in well-drained, sunny, and sheltered spots. With careful planting, regular feeding, and pruning, Pear Conference produces high-quality fruit year after year. Partially self-fertile, it yields the heaviest crops when planted near another pear tree or a suitable pollinator in the neighbourhood. Dormant trees sent for planting will establish quickly in spring or late autumn, ensuring a strong start for your garden.
