Technical and agronomic details:
Botanical name: Pyrus communis 'Conference'
Seed quantity: 10 selected seeds
Plant type and cultivation cycle: Perennial fruit tree, with a multi-year cultivation cycle that guarantees annual production once it reaches adulthood.
Plant height: It can reach 4-7 metres in open ground if not pruned, but it is easily managed with targeted pruning to adapt to smaller spaces.
Uses: The fruits are ideal for fresh consumption, perfect for making jams, juices, cakes, and other desserts. The tree also makes a great aesthetic addition to orchards and gardens.
Tasting Notes: It produces elongated fruits, characterized by a yellowish-green skin that develops a characteristic russeting when ripe. The pulp is fine, exceptionally juicy, melting, and has a sweet, intensely aromatic flavor.
Hardiness and Origin: The Conference variety is widely appreciated in Europe for its remarkable resistance to cold and major pear diseases. Our seeds are selected from robust and healthy mother plants.
Sowing period: Requires cold stratification (3-4 months). Sowing can be done in spring (March-April) after controlled stratification, or in autumn for natural stratification.
Harvest period: The fruits typically ripen between September and October, depending on local climate conditions.
Optimal conditions for germination: To break seed dormancy, cold stratification is essential. Once stratified, seeds germinate best at temperatures of 15-20°C.
Soil type: Prefers deep, well-drained, medium-textured soils with a slightly acidic or neutral pH (6.0-7.0).
Recommended exposure: For abundant, high-quality production, full sun exposure is recommended. It also tolerates partial shade, but yields are lower.
Germination times: After the stratification period, germination usually occurs within 3-6 weeks.
Pot or ground cultivation: Ideal for open ground cultivation in orchards and gardens. It can be grown in large pots during its first few years, provided appropriate pruning is done.
Quality Specifications: Our vegetable and orchard seeds are Non-GMO (not genetically modified), carefully selected to ensure high germination and varietal fidelity of the Conference Pear.
