Plant history & use
Clapp’s Favourite is an American pear variety developed in the mid-1800s and has since become a reliable early variety also in Swedish gardens. The fruit is yellow with red hues, juicy and sweet with a mild scent. It is often eaten fresh but is also suitable for pickling, compote, or drying. Since the fruit ripens early and quickly after harvest, it should be consumed or preserved in time to avoid overripeness.
Cultivation
Thrives in sunny and sheltered locations. Plant in well-drained, nutrient-rich soil and water regularly during establishment and in dry periods. The variety is not self-pollinating – it is recommended to plant together with another pear variety for a better harvest. The fruit ripens in August–September depending on location.
