Two trees in the orchard, one a family tree, the other a conference, not a single pear to be seen on either tree. Last year was a bumper crop and previous years were fruitful. I did have to restake the conference as the weight of fruit made her lean a bit, but it leafed well. I was away at blossom time so I do not if they were in bloom. It was very windy so I wonder if that has anything to do with it. The apples are producing, all be it smaller fruits than last year and the reluctant russet is giving it's first proper crop for the first time in eight years. I should think it's a pollination problem as the pears on neighbouring plots at the lottie are producing well and that gets the same weather conditions as home.
