The fruit has the appearance and taste of an apple, but with the skin and texture of a pear. It has green skin with a red blush and is very sweet and juicy, making it a healthy and delicious snack. The fruit is ready to harvest from late-summer to early-autumn. While it is partially self-fertile, it produces better crops when planted with another pear cultivar. Pear 'Reddy Robin' also features white blossoms in the spring and yellow and orange autumn leaves, making it a beautiful addition to any garden. Pyrus x bretschneideri is a hybrid between Pyrus pyrifolia and Pyrus betulifolia. Pyrus x bretschneideri is deciduous and native to China. Pear 'Reddy Robin' was developed before 2010 by the New Zealand Institute for Plant and Food Research (PVR 30814).

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.
