About this product

Pyrus communis Beech Hill, known as Beech Hill Pear, is a common pear cultivar with a very ascending habit until its heavy crop of small hard pears weighs it down in the autumn.

A pretty white spring flower and good autumn leaf colour make this a nice garden tree if you are prepared to mop up the inedible fruit each year.

Pyrus communis Beech Hill thrives best on free-draining heavy soils with good nutritional content.

It is an excellent tree for supporting birds and wildlife within a garden.

If you live in an area prone to rabbits or deer, then we recommend rabbit guards for these trees.

Mature Height: 7-12m
