Growing and Training

Winnal's Longdon is easy to grow, and can be pollinated by many other European pear varieties, including Beth, Conference, Comice, and Louise Bonne.

The main issue is a tendency to biennial bearing - you can prevent this by making sure you thin the fruitlets in late May, especially if there has been a heavy fruit set.

History

Winnal's Longdon was raised by Mr Winnal of Woodfield in the county of Herefordshire in the west of England in the 1790s.
