Pyrus communis 'Bosc' is an elegant, old-growth European pear variety known for its elongated, rough-skinned, cinnamon-brown fruit, sometimes adorned with pale lenticels. Its dense, sweet, and slightly spicy white to creamy flesh is ideal for fresh eating, cooking, poaching, or baking, as it retains its shape and texture well. 'Bosc' is partially self-fertile, but its production is enhanced in the presence of compatible varieties such as 'Bartlett' or 'Anjou'. Its spring blooms are abundant and ornamental, attracting pollinators. Adapted to temperate climates, this robust cultivar thrives in well-drained soil and full sun. Valued for its productivity, longevity, and exceptional fruit quality, 'Bosc' is a must-have in any well-planned orchard.
