About this variety
Machine-translated, may contain errors.
You will find ‚Gute Luise’ robust, widely cultivable autumn pear with balanced flavor. It grows healthy, bears regularly, and is therefore a grateful tree for beginners. Pair it with a pollinator such as ‚Conference’ or ‚Williams Christ’, then the harvest falls in September in abundance.
You will taste juicy, finely melting flesh with a pleasant sweet-acid balance and a hint of spice. Fresh it is a good table pear; cooked it retains its aroma surprisingly well.
