I'm confused. About 10 years ago I planted a pear tree. It was actually two types of trees spliced into one that is self pollinating. I can't off the top of my head remember the tree names, only that they were common pears for Texas weather. I have never grown pears before so am not yet familiar with the whole fruiting cycle, etc.
So I haven't done a thing to this tree. It was totally ignored but has managed to grow throughout the long drought probably due in part to the deep sandy loam soils. Usually, I'm told, pear trees in Texas have already born fruit by now (some as early as August). But my tree currently has half inch or smaller sized pears on it and it looks like there are also blooms developing. I'm confused! Or perhaps my tree is confused.... What does this late fruiting mean and what should I do or expect?
