Q.My Pear Tree Is Overloaded With Fruit; Unfortunately The Tree Is Unable To Hold Up Fruit. Help!

Zone 30032 | Miss Vee added on July 12, 2022 | Answered

The tree is heavenly weighed down by pears; this would be great news, however the tree itself is not strong enough to hold up all the pears; pears are leaning over to the ground and they have not fully ripen, yet. Help!

This will be pretty typical. You can thin some out if you would like, but this is standard behavior for a pear tree.
