Dwarf Pretty Face Pear

Available from retail stockists
Requires a pollinator

Only available from retail nurseries in WA.

Pretty Face Pear has been available in Australia for many years and PlantNet® now makes it available as Dwarf Pretty Face Pear. The fruit of this cocktail pear only reaches 25 – 30mm in size, perfect for a cheese platter or dessert garnish. Every Australian should have a pear tree in their backyard!

Select the pear to suit your area and your tastes from our large variety range available, from subtropical through to cold climate varieties. All varieties chosen in the dwarf range produce full size fruit and are sweet and crisp to eat.

Dwarf Pretty Face Pear requires a pollinator – our recommendations are Dwarf Mirandino Rosso Pear, and Dwarf Packham’s Triumph Pear.

Suitability
Not recommended for coastal Qld and northern NSW as winters are not cold enough to produce fruit.
