Pear Williams 7.5 Litre Pot Half Standard

Pyrus communis 'Williams' Bon Chrétien

Common name: Williams Pear | Bartlett (in USA)
Form: ½ Standard | 7.5L Pot

A classic heritage variety, Williams' Bon Chrétien is a superb dessert pear with smooth, pale yellow skin and sweet, aromatic, juicy flesh. It’s one of the finest-flavoured pears for eating fresh, bottling, and poaching. This half-standard form features a clear stem topped with a lollipop-style head, ideal for compact gardens, formal layouts, or container planting.

In spring, the tree bears clusters of white blossom, which are attractive to pollinators. While not self-fertile, it crops well with a compatible pear nearby (pollination group 3). Prune to maintain shape and improve fruit production.

Best in full sun with fertile, well-drained soil. Hardy and productive in UK gardens.
