As I was thrashing and whacking down camphor trees that had taken over the fenceline of my backyard, I came across the two pear trees that had been planted many years ago, but never produced. My thought was to cut them down too, but I noticed they had a few blooms on them. I remembered the parable of the fig tree in Luke 13: 6-9 in which the owner of a vineyard wanted his gardner to cut down an unproductive fig tree, but his gardner asked him to leave it one more year and then cut it down if it doesn't bear fruit. So I said to my pear trees, "If you don't produce this year, I'll cut you down!"



I guess I'll have to hire a picking crew to come while I'm traveling this summer....or maybe the squirrels will take care them. I spied two pears growing in one of the trees. Both trees are needed for fertilization.

my most favorite fruit besides the banana, would love to grow my own pears,

It's a date, Barbzee...we'll see if we can't get a gtg organized this year....if not, we'll eat that pie ourselves. (I cut the lemon tree WAY back....hope I get some lemons this year )
