I have 2 six foot trees in buckets to put in the ground - a barlett

both will bear fruit, may bear fruit, must have 2nd plum and pear,
etc....?


Neither plums nor pears are related to citrus. Thus, the nearby
presence of citrus trees is no relevant.

If you are in the U.S., your question should be addressed to your
county's agricultural agent or the agricultura extension of your state
university.

Trump disavows "Send her back" rally chant. We must all remember,
however, it was Trump who first said "Send them back". In any case,
Trump praised the chanters as "incredible patriots".
