Rosemarie Pear Tree for Sale

The Rosemarie Pear is one of South Africa's most beloved pear varieties and one that performs exceptionally well in South African conditions. It produces beautiful, full-flavoured pears with pale yellow skin and an attractive rosy-pink blush, sweet, juicy, aromatic flesh and very low acidity – making it one of the finest dessert pears available.

Fresh, tree-ripened pears are one of the great pleasures of the home orchard. A Rosemarie pear picked at peak ripeness from your own tree is a world away from the hard, tasteless specimens often found in supermarkets. Home-grown pears are best enjoyed eaten fresh but are also excellent for poaching, making preserves, and adding to salads and cheese boards.

The Rosemarie Pear Tree is a deciduous tree that produces beautiful white spring blossom before the distinctive pears appear in late summer to autumn. It is an attractive ornamental tree as well as a productive fruit tree.

Our Rosemarie Pear Trees for sale are grafted onto suitable pear rootstock, which encourages earlier fruiting, consistent fruit quality, and more manageable tree sizes compared to seed-grown trees.

Pear trees require a period of winter cold (chilling hours) to produce fruit, making them best suited to the cooler, higher-altitude regions of South Africa such as the Cape Winelands, the KwaZulu-Natal Midlands, and parts of the Highveld.
