Pyrus 'Concorde' is a fairly new winter pear variety, combining the best of both sides of its parents 'Conference' and 'Comice'. The fruit is medium to large with an elongated shape. The skin is yellow-green with very little russeting and the pale yellow flesh is sweet and juicy with a pleasant mild flavour. It ripens in late October and keeps well in storage. Although 'Concorde' is partially self-fertile, to guarantee a bumper crop of pears plant with another tree from the same flowering group (e.g. 'Beurre Hardy')
