Silly Bradford Pear Tree
He's an ornamental, not supposed to bear fruit, 15 ft. tall and skinny
because he doesn't get sufficient light. So this year, there are 13
good-sized pears.
Meanwhile, the 50-ft., bushy Bartlett pear tree I grew from seed in
1979, doesn't have many more pears, if any more, as far as I can tell,
from ground level.
Who can figure silly flora.
