Obtenteur

Dhommé / Millet de la Turtaudière

Pollinisation

autostérile (a besoin d'une variété pollinisatrice)

En tiers de mois (début / milieu / fin) pour l'hémisphère nord en climat tempéré ; l'altitude et l'année les décalent.

Fruit

Fine-celled, dense, fully melting flesh brimming with juice, strongly sweet and barely acidic, delicately spiced - regarded as one of the finest November dessert pears.

Croissance

Medium growth; fruit wind-firm. For garden, espalier and meadow orchard, as a wall espalier in low mountain areas.

Rendement

Comes into bearing late, later medium-high, and tends to biennial bearing.

Remarques

Prefers warmer, pear-suited soils with higher heat needs, recommended up to 350 m. Harvest as late as possible - only then full size and best flavour. Tree-ripe mid October to early November, ready in November, keeps about a month with little shrivelling.

Entretien

Pick as late as possible for full fruit size and flavour. Guard against strong sun as the leaves are prone to sunburn.
