The 'Doyenné du Comice' pear tree is a wonderful choice for any garden, especially if you've got a sunny spot with well-drained soil. Known for its outstanding flavour, this pear tree has a vigorous and upright growth habit, making it a perfect fit even for smaller gardens. In mid-spring, the tree bursts into bloom with lovely pure white flowers, which eventually turn into large, pale green pears by October. These pears can be stored for about three weeks and are celebrated for their delicious taste and silky texture.
'Doyenné du Comice' pears are often hailed as one of the tastiest pear varieties out there. The juicy, buttery flesh is rich and sweet, with a velvety texture that makes it a favourite dessert pear. While the tree might not always produce the largest harvest, older trees tend to be more reliable in their cropping. The pears are best enjoyed from November to December, offering a delightful treat as the winter season approaches.
This variety has earned the RHS Award of Garden Merit, highlighting its superb quality. To ensure good fruiting, it's a good idea to plant another pear variety like 'Concorde' or 'Conference' nearby for pollination. Although 'Doyenné du Comice' might not be the most consistent cropper, the exceptional quality of the fruit more than makes up for it. Planting it against a warm, south-facing wall or fence can also help protect the tree during its early spring bloom. All in all, 'Doyenné du Comice' is a favourite among pear lovers, thanks to its unbeatable flavour and the added charm of its springtime blossoms.
