Williams Pear
United Kingdom
Quince BA29, Seedling
Late August through September
Williams Pear is a late summer pear variety that was discovered as a chance seedling in England around 1770. It is one of the most widely cultivated pear varieties in the world. It is a high-quality and highly valued variety, confirmed by the fact that Williams Pear is the standard by which other pears are evaluated.
The flesh is light yellow, very juicy, and melts in the mouth with a characteristic muscat aroma. Each bite delivers a harmonious balance of sweet and tart flavors, a perfectly orchestrated melody for your palate.
The fruits of the Williams Pear are a true marvel of nature. They are large, around 160 grams or more, with slight surface irregularities. Medium to large in size, pear-shaped, and covered with delicate light green skin. At harvest, the fruit is greenish and gradually turns golden yellow as it ripens.

You can purchase seedlings of Pear Williams 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.
