Default 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.
