Pear tree 'Rode Williams' in espalier form

Low trunk 120-150 cm high - 7.5 litre pot. The low trunk Red Williams pear tree in espalier, also known as Williams Christ, is known for its delicious, juicy fruits with an attractive red skin. This tree is medium sized and flowers in spring with beautiful white blossoms. The pears have a fine, sweet flavour and are perfect for fresh consumption or making pear compote. For successful cultivation, the Red Williams requires a sunny location and well-drained, fertile soil. Pruning in winter or early spring promotes healthy growth and fruit development. This tree is self-pollinating, but can benefit from cross-pollination with other pear varieties for a better harvest.

Fruit trees in espalier form are ideal for smaller gardens. They are well-formed trees that grow against a trellis and also look beautiful. They require less space than regular low-stem fruit trees and are also easier to maintain. They are easier to prune, your fruit ripens better because the sun can reach it better, harvesting is easier and finally the espalier form ensures a higher production per tree.
