Resistance and Origin: A historic variety, widely cultivated throughout the world, known for its adaptability to various temperate climates and good general resistance to common pear diseases.

Harvest period: The fruits typically ripen from mid-August to early September, depending on the climate zone and environmental conditions.
Optimal germination conditions: Seeds require a period of cold stratification (0-4°C) to break dormancy. Subsequently, sowing should take place in a moist but well-drained substrate, with stable ambient temperatures (18-22°C).

Recommended exposure: Requires a position in full sun, with at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight per day for optimal growth and abundant fruiting.
Germination times: Variable, generally 2 to 6 weeks after sowing, once stratification is complete and ideal conditions are provided.
Pot or ground cultivation: The pear tree is ideally grown in the ground. Pot cultivation is only possible for young plants or in large containers, requiring specific care and regular pruning.
