Pear ‘Onward’

A strong, hardy tree with green, oval leaves, this tree has heavily scented white flowers in spring, which are a huge attraction for bees and other pollinating insects. ‘Onward’ tastes a little like an early Comice – buttery and sweet, with a fresh crunch. This tree bears good, regular crops in a short fruiting season of September to early October.

Pollination Information: This pear requires a pollinating partner from another variety of pear nearby. Ideally this should come from the same pollination group 4, however it is possible to use one from group 3 as well. Please note that it is not suitable for pollination purposes with the variety ‘Doyenne du Comice’.
