Apple 'Pacific Rose' produces apples with clear, rose-pink skin and firm, crispy, and juicy flesh with a rich and sweet taste. The fruit becomes ripe in mid-autumn, while the pink buds on Apple 'Pacific Rose' open to white flowers during spring. To ensure proper pollination, Apple 'Pacific Rose' requires cross-pollination from other cultivars such as Apple 'Gala', Apple 'Golden Delicious', Apple 'Granny Smith', Apple 'Monty's Surprise', Apple 'Initial', and Apple 'Royal Gala'. Apple is deciduous and native to Afghanistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Pakistan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, and China. Apple 'Pacific Rose' was developed before 1989 by the Horticulture and Food Research Institute of New Zealand (PVR 624).

Pollination: Needs a pollinator — plant within around 50 m of a compatible variety flowering at the same time, such as Baujade, Cox's Orange Pippin, Divine, Fuji, Initial, Lady in Red, Monty's Surprise, Peasgood Nonsuch, Royal Gala, Thumbelina Candy Crunch, Blush Babe, Granny Smith.

This is a general guide. When a plant flowers, fruits and colours up depends on the climate where you live and on the season. If timing matters, please reach out to our team.

Foliage Type

Evergreen plants retain foliage year-round but still shed and replace some leaves gradually as part of their normal growth cycle, rather than losing them all at once.

Deciduous plants shed all their leaves for part of the year (usually in autumn and winter), usually in response to colder temperatures or dry seasons, often producing seasonal colour before leaf drop.

Semi-evergreen plants sit between the two, keeping most of their foliage but losing some or all leaves briefly under cooler or drier conditions before quickly regrowing them.
