Pear, Chapps Favourite, 5Ft

Pear, Chapps Favourite is a popular variety of dessert pear that is known for its sweet and juicy fruits. This variety is easy to grow and is a favorite among home gardeners and commercial growers alike.

The best position for planting Chapps Favourite pear trees is in a sunny spot with well-drained soil. The soil should be rich in organic matter and have a pH level of around 6.0 to 7.0. Pear trees should be planted during the dormant season, which is typically between late autumn and early spring.

Chapps Favourite pear trees typically take around 2-3 years from planting to fruiting, depending on the growing conditions. This variety produces medium-sized fruits that are ready to harvest in late September to early October.

The tree itself can grow up to 3-4 meters tall and spread out to a width of around 2-3 meters. To encourage healthy growth and fruiting, Chapps Favourite pear trees should be fed regularly with a balanced fertilizer, preferably every spring.

Chapps Favourite pear trees are self-fertile, meaning they can produce fruit without another pear tree for pollination. However, planting another variety of pear tree nearby can increase the likelihood of successful pollination and a larger harvest.

Overall, Chapps Favourite is a delicious and reliable variety of dessert pear that produces high-quality fruits. It is a great choice for home gardeners and orchard growers, and is sure to delight pear lovers of all ages.
