Ornamental Pear is a clean, architectural feature tree ideal for Brisbane and surrounds, valued for its strong upright structure, spring blossom and autumn colour. With a naturally tidy form, it brings order and clarity to garden designs, making it especially popular in front gardens, avenues and contemporary landscapes.

In spring, masses of soft white flowers appear, followed by fresh green foliage through summer. As the seasons shift, leaves turn warm tones of gold, bronze and red, offering a gentle but rewarding seasonal change in subtropical gardens.

Why it’s a feature tree

  • Elegant upright form with strong architectural presence

  • Abundant spring blossom

  • Attractive autumn foliage colour

  • Excellent structure for formal and modern gardens

Planting companions
Pair with plants that complement its structured habit:

  • Box, Murraya or low hedging plants for clean lines

  • Lavender or Salvia for contrast and pollinators

  • Ornamental grasses for softness and movement

  • Dwarf Mondo or Liriope for a neat understorey

Growing conditions & care

  • Performs best in full sun

  • Prefers well-drained soil, but adapts to most garden conditions

  • Water regularly during establishment

  • Once established, it is moderately drought tolerant

  • Minimal pruning required to maintain its natural form

Mature height: approx. 5–8 metres (depending on cultivar)
Mature width: approx. 3–5 metres

In Brisbane gardens, Ornamental Pear offers a dependable balance of structure, seasonal interest and ease of care, making it a versatile choice for design-led plantings.
