Common pear and its cultivation

The common pear is considered an excellent tree that will not only produce delicious fruits, but also decorate your garden plot. If you are looking for the most delicious pear varieties, you can give preference to Duchess and Williams.

The advantage of the Duchess variety is that you will collect large fruits with excellent taste and sweet aroma. But among the disadvantages of this variety, one can single out insufficient frost resistance and increased requirements for the quality of the soil. It will be possible to harvest the fruits of the Duchess pear variety at the end of July.

Growing pears

In general, first of all, you need to choose the right pear varieties, since the planting time will depend on this. In addition, late-ripening varieties produce crops that can be stored throughout the winter. But the early varieties of pears do not have this property - they need to be eaten according to the season.

Planting pears again depends on the variety you have preferred. As a rule, experienced gardeners take into account the natural conditions of their climatic region. Before planting, you need to carefully examine the seedlings. If they have damaged ends, they should be cut off, leaving only the healthy ends. The thicker the root system of the seedling, the faster it will grow.

If we consider caring for a pear, then it has a lot in common with an apple tree. Keep in mind that a young pear is more susceptible to frost, and, accordingly, its lower part must be carefully covered for the winter. At the same time, the root system of young trees is very weak, and therefore the trunks must be weeded, fertilized and loosened regularly.
