Description

Margaret Marilla Pear Sapling (BA 29 rootstock) is an England-origin boutique pear variety cultivated mainly in the Marmara and Aegean regions. It stands out for its disease resistance, large fruit size, and long storage capability. All our saplings are certified, true-to-type, and disease-free.

The tree has a semi-upright and fast-growing habit. The BA 29 quince rootstock provides semi-dwarf growth, early bearing, and regular productivity. It is suitable for modern orchard systems and allows easier maintenance and harvesting.

The fruits weigh approximately 180โ€“220 grams and have an oval-conical shape. The skin is green-yellow with speckled patterns. The flesh is fine-textured, moderately juicy, sweet, and pleasantly aromatic. It is considered a high-quality fresh-market pear.

One of the key advantages of this variety is its strong resistance to fire blight disease. It also performs well in cold storage and can be stored for approximately 2โ€“3 months.

Harvest time is between September 20โ€“27, ripening from mid to late September.

Recommended pollinator: Williams.
