Beurre Hardy is in flowering group 4 and is not self-fertile so needs a pollination partner of a different variety nearby. Pollinate with Clapp's Favorite, Conference, Nashi Hosui, Williams' bon chrétien
One of the few pear cultivars compatible with quince rootstock and therefore suitable for creating dwarf pear trees.
