Asian Pear

I don't have any experience with growing asian pears so can't really help but looking at that beautiful blossom I want to grow one now.
Your tree looks to be doing really well though, and I'm guessing it's only a young tree?

Hi Sean

thanks, planted last year so hopeful for a good crop this year!

I don't grow Asian pears, but I've read that they do typically flower and fruit prolifically and that thinning the fruits is more necessary than for other fruit, especially if you want large fruit.

If the plant has only been in the ground for a year then you should probably do this anyway so it can put more energy into establishing itself and growing.

Hi unclefudgly

Your blossom looks beautiful! I planted a Shinseiki pear tree back in December and it has produced lots of blossom but hardly any leaves. Has your tree grown lots of leaves on the branches or are they just around the blossom as pictured?

Thanks

Rob

Leaves are pretty much at the growing ends only Rob, looks happy enough.
