Pyrus communis 'White Doyenne'

This ancient French cultivar is prized for its melt-in-your-mouth texture and superb flavor, both fresh and cooked. Tastes like a fine, rich buttery chardonnay, sweet-yet-tart, with musky undertones and a strong perfume. The favorite pear of famous chef Alice Waters!

Ripens in September. Early bloomer; match with another early or mid-season bloomer for effective pollination. Lasts up to 3 months in storage. Some fireblight resistance.

Trees arrived in very good condition on June 5. Well pruned, good root system. Began to leaf out within days.

White Doyenne pear

Beautiful specimen that leafed out about two days after I got it in the ground. Superior quality and good customer service as they moved up the shipping date (although I'm not sure why the original shipping date was so late to begin with).
