Spots on pear leaves

10 years ago

We have a pear tree only about 15 years old. It has just finished blossoming and now hundreds of tiny baby pears. Upon closer inspection today I noticed many leaves have clusters of raised red bumps on the underside of the leaves.(sorry no pics) Could any of you tell me what these might be and know of any treatment? Thanks,

Harry

Sorry I don't have any pics . I haven't tried to figure out how to do that just yet. When I do, I'll upload some. But, in the meantime I thought someone out there would have some guesses as to what the problem might be.

Harry,

pear has so many leaf diseases. Without pictures, it is hard to guess. It can be fungal or bacterial diseases or can cause by tiny insects like mites.
