Q.Pear Trees
My tree is 6 to 8 yrs old. This is the first time it has produced pears. It was a self-pollinating tree. My pears are very small, not any bigger than a red grape, and are a reddish color. Should they be that color now? There are only 10 or 12 pears on the whole tree. How do I increase the production of this tree?
