A semi dwarfing rootstock suitable for bush pear trees in situations such as small gardens, allotments. Quince rootstocks are nearly all compatible with pears enabling them to be kept small and yet come into cropping relatively quickly after 4 or 5 years, much sooner than on the vigorous seedling rootstocks of the past. Good for cordons, small espaliers. Will grow to 2.5-3.5m (8-12′) eventually. Pears enjoy a warm sheltered sunny position. Two year non organic rootstocks.
Fruit trees & bushes are dispatched when dormant from late November to late March. When you order we will acknowledge, then email you an Order Confirmation in October when we take payment before being in contact to arrange delivery from late November.
