Worcester Pearmain Apple
- Unit price
- / per
Noteworthy for its distinctive strawberry flavor, the intensity of which can vary, Worcester Pearmain's taste is significantly influenced by weather conditions during its brief ripening period. Although its parentage remains unknown, Devonshire Quarrenden is a probable candidate due to its shared strawberry notes.
While Worcester Pearmain may not occupy the top tier of apple varieties, its early ripening and strawberry flavor have made it a focal point in numerous breeding programs. Growers aspire to infuse these characteristics into new varieties. The vibrant red/crimson flush adds commercial appeal. Many resulting varieties, such as Discovery, Elton Beauty, Katy, Jester, and Lord Lambourne, inherit the sought-after strawberry flavor.
Well-suited for garden cultivation, Worcester Pearmain benefits from prolonged on-tree ripening, enhancing its flavor. Several of its descendants, including Katy, prove to be excellent choices for garden apple trees.
May be susceptible to aphids, including woolly aphid and rosy apple aphid, fruit tree red spider mite, codling moth and other caterpillars
