Perry Pears

Records of the trees in the orchard are kept – flowering times, fruit attributes, growth habit etc., and will be a valuable resource for the future.

As well as maintaining the nation’s collection of perry pears, the Centre also publishes research manuals and undertakes fruit trials and other investigations.
Perry pear research papers on DNA, fruit flowering times and other topics can be found at https://www.nationalperrypearcentre.org.uk/the-collection/research
