We planted two dwarf pear trees a few years ago. I know the old saying about full sized pear trees "Grow pears for your heirs." This is why we went with dwarf trees. The cherry tree we planted the same year has born fruit three years now, but the pears have never had anything. This year, though, one tree is covered with tiny fruit and the other has a smattering of developing pears too. Exciting! I'm looking forward to making pear butter and pear crisp this fall.
