Pyrus communis 'Beurre Hardy' is a vigorous, upright, pyramidal, deciduous tree with ovate, glossy, dark green leaves and profusion of creamy-white flowers in early spring. It bears moderate, regular crops of large, tasty, red-flushed, greenish-yellow pears ready for harvesting in October. The fruit has excellent flavour and pleasantly melting flesh. Pyrus communis 'Beurre Hardy' can grow in a wide range of soils, except damp or filled with stones. It thrives in fertile, neutral, moist, well-drained soils. It prefers sunny, sheltered positions and the fruit is best when grown in full sun. It is extremely resistant to frost but since it is a very early bloomer, flower buds may be damaged by late frosts. It can withstand wind. It is self-sterile and needs to be grown with a pollination partner. Pear 'Doyenné du Comice' is primarily grown for its sweet and delicious fruit, but beautiful, white flowers make it a great ornamental tree. Ideal for small informal, cottage, and wildlife gardens.
