Default How do I get pear tree to fruit?

Standard pears take a *long* time to bloom. You can help by bending the
branches down so they make a 45 to 90 degree angle to the trunk. (I wish I
knew that when I had pear trees in Texas; mine looked like poplar trees,
the branches all grew straight up.)

Best regards,
