About this item
The Double-Pear Twist Tree is the perfect combination of art, creativity, and horticulture. Using grafting techniques that go back centuries, 2 distinct pear varieties are now growing on just 1 tree. These varieties are a blend of Bartlett, Anjou, Comice, Red Bartlett, Moonglow, Kieffer, Luscious, Bosc and Flemish Beauty. A great benefit of this tree is that the unique varieties pollinate each other. When before you needed to reserve space for at least 2 trees, this tree takes up much less precious room in your landscape. Also, the different varieties of pears create a beautiful tree because they are all different shades of green, red, and yellow. Also you get to enjoy a variety of pears all season long because they ripen at different times. Now when 1 crop is done, another pear with a completely different flavor will be ready to enjoy.
