Clement's pear is a French dessert pear, with an excellent fondant-like sweet flesh. It can be considered as an improved Williams / Barlett (to which it is closely-related).

Growing and Training

Clement's pear is known for its heavy regular annual production, and excellent disease resistance.


History

Clement is a seedling of the well-known Williams or Bartlett pear, and is very similar to its famous parent, although it ripens slightly later, and seems more disease-resistant. It was discovered in the 1980s growing in the garden of Clement Lamarr, in northern France.
