Conference pear, Pyrus communis "Conference"
England
Quince BA29, Seedling
Late September
The Conference pear variety was developed in England in 1855 by Thomas Francis Rivers from Rivers Nursery in Sawbridgeworth. It received its name at a national British pear conference where it won first prize. Conference pear is reliable even under less favorable growing conditions. Although partially self-fertile, a suitable pollinator will ensure higher yields.
The flesh is juicy, sweet, dense but not coarse, with a slightly grainy texture.
The fruits are elongated and narrow, with juicy yet firm flesh and a satisfying flavor. Fruits are large, averaging around 220 grams. Harvest takes place when the fruit transitions from dull green to light green, with the seed cavity tip turning brown.

Sensitive to late spring frosts, though the tree is adaptable to various growing conditions.
You can purchase seedlings of Pear Conference at our garden center in the nursery located at Gornjem Crnjelovu, Glavna 65a.
Upon collection of the goods (seedlings), the Agromedžik nursery no longer has the possibility of supervision or care, and therefore cannot provide any further guarantee. Since seedlings are living beings, it is not possible to give a guarantee even a day after they leave the nursery. We cannot influence their maintenance and care, and consequently their further growth and development.
Our plants regularly undergo phytosanitary and vegetative inspections, therefore we do not have diseased or infected plants.
Planting is done from late October to mid-April, avoiding periods of frost and drought.
Trim the roots, then the branches into 3 to 4 rings. At the beginning of March, cut the seedlings to a height of 80 - 120 cm.
Before planting, soak the plant in water for at least 2 - 3 hours.
Dig a hole, in the previously prepared soil, measuring 60 x 60 x 50 cm for the soil (40 x 40 x 40 cm) so that the roots and part of the stem are well placed, taking care that the grafting point is outside the soil.
Place the plant in the hole and cover it with dry soil, gently press it down so that it gets well between the roots.
Fertilizer and seedling roots must not be in direct contact.

Pour with 20-30 liters of water. During periods of drought in the first year of planting, it is necessary to water young seedlings more often.
Containerized seedlings can be planted throughout the year.
*Applies to bare root seedlings.
