My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Ayers pear tree

16 years ago

I have a two year old Ayers pear tree.The first yeay I had one pear to maturity. This year the tree flowered and I rubbed the flowers. Bingo , I have between 40 to 50 tiny pears that formed. The tree stands alone. There is no other pear tree s in area. Reading the other posts what gives. Why do I get pears, just lucky. Comments welcomed.
