g'day karen,

having 'a' & 'b' trees not totally necessary as all trees will bare
male and female flowers at some stage of their fruiting cycle, having
the 2 of certain varities extends your fruiting season ie.,. when the
'a' tree has its female flowers the 'b' tree has its male flowers and
visa verca.

some varieties don't need 'a' or 'b' ever.

Would the Reed be one of those?
