Description
Raised about 1820 in Boulogne, France, and named after M. Hardy, Director of Arboriculture at the Luxembourg Gardens. A very tasty pear with juicy flesh and a slight rose water flavour - reliable and hardy, one of the best garden varieties, and well suited to northern climates. Pick when still hard and store until ripe. Upright habit and good autumn colour. Doesn-Æt travel very well - so is becoming less commonly seen in supermarkets.For help with choosing the correct rootstock for your needs, please click here A Guide to Rootstocks
