Bare Root Concorde Pear Tree (BARE ROOT). Click The Link For Containerised Concorde Pear Tree

Concorde pear trees are one of our better sellers as they have several qualities that are worth while having. The large crop of sweet and soft fruit are of a higher quality and will store well. The supple side shoots are excellent for training into different shapes but if you have a small garden then the naturally compact shape will not be too invasive. The fruits are considered medium to large.

It is also a pear tree that will attract the birds and other pollinating insects so be prepared to have a busy garden around flowering time. Another great advantage to the Concorde pear tree is that is has good resistance to mildew and scab. This is not to say that you could put the Concorde pear tree in a mildew and scab research laboratory without a protection suit and expect it to go home uninfected. As with most things, this is all relative. Compared to many other pear trees, the Concorde does not suffer as much with mildew and scab.

The Concorde pear tree has also been given the Royal Horticultural Society award of Garden Merit. We are not sure if the RHS is as "allegedly" corrupt as FIFA and the MP's expenses office so take this information at face value.

Most Important Information

Fertility: C4 (SELF FERTILE) Does not require another pear tree to produce fruit however an increased yield maybe had by putting another pear tree (not Concorde) from flowering group C3,C4 or C5

Which Type Of Pear Tree Rootstock To Choose:

Those in the horticultural business love their technical lingo, so here is something to help you decipher Gobbeldy Gook from the Green Fingered Brigade. Each rootstock description is made up of several terms from one or more of the following:  

Cordon            :  Columnar shape and short branches. Ideal for space saving and quick fruiting (possibly first year)
Quince C         :  Will reach approx. 2.5 metres. Fruits quicker than Quince A and Kirchensellar 
Quince Eline : Almost identical to Quince C but but has superior cold hardiness.  
Quince A         :  Will reach approx. 3.5 metres. Fruits quicker than Kirchensellar
Kirchensaller:  Will reach approx. 6.0+ metres.
Half Standard: Trunk clear of branches for around 1 metre and is traditional tree shaped. Good for gardens e.g. easy mowing and companion planting underneath.
Straight Lead: Much more of a clear trunk than a Half Standard, usually around 2.0 + metres.
Bush            : Pruned so that branches start around 45cm from the ground.
Maiden            : 1-2 years old and unpruned, ideal for shaping into Fan, Espalier, step over etc 
Bare Root       :
There is no soil or pot around the roots which are wrapped in a bag and are cheaper than containerised.
1 Year             : Pear Tree will be between 1 and 2 years old
2 Year             : Pear Tree will be between 2 and 3 years old

Fruiting Times For Bare Root Pear Trees
The general rule of thumb with most fruit trees is that the smaller the ultimate height of the tree, the sooner it will bear fruit. Pear trees around 2.5 metres could fruit in 1-2 years whereas those at 6+ metres could be as much as 5 years. Weather can increase or decrease these times.



Fruit Tree Heights
Taller does not mean more value for money. A 1 year old fruit tree can easily be substantially higher than a 2 year old, this is because they are hard pruned at 1 year old to create the desired shape. Some trees have over 100cm of height removed. They can then have another pruning at 2 years old to increase fruit growing real estate. Most fruit trees will benefit from having a third to half of the seasons new growth cut back in the Autumn to prevent long whippy branches which break easily. Age and pruning completed determine real value. 


Do I Need To Stake My Bare Root Tree?
9 out of 10 times the answer will be no, especially if under 200cm tall. However our article on Tree Staking should help guide you.  

Planting In The Corner Of A Garden
Air and light is reduced in this location which could promote fungus and bacterial issues. If the corner is of the house and a fence then you also have leeching issues to contend with from cement and wood preservatives. Also when it rains, that area would experience higher water levels so we advise against it unless the plant is very hardy. 

1 Year Maiden Bare Root Trees
If you plant a 1 Year maiden tree and do not prune it at all, it will grow a little more upright and have more clear stem
