I was surfing the net looking for pics of Potomac pears.
I came across this website. It listed four 8-10 ft Potomac pear trees for $1,345 (on sale, no less).
Potomac European Pear | Bower & Branch.
Maybe, you should sell Potomac trees for under a thousand dollars to compete with this nursery. 
I am trying to see what the pear look like. As usual, several nurseries have different pictures of their “Potomac”. ACN has this pic. The pear in the front to the right look quite different from the rest of the group.
No wonder I have hard time when I look at these pear pics.
They are delicious pears! That is why i started this thread The price of fruit trees is too expensive . Prices are dropping again.
Do you have pictures of your Potomac pear?
These threads get long there are some up a ways in this thread. Here are some photos from above. They taste much like anjou but better when they are home grown.
There is never enough potomac so i added many more in 2023.
Hope all is going well with retirement. My hopes are you found a wonderful peice of land where you are now happily growing many potomac pears you can enjoy with sharp cheese.
I have a nice Potomac tree. I finally learned how to train to Central Leader . . . and my Potomac cooperated very well. No pears yet. And it has several other varieties grafted to it. But, now with all the ‘Potomac Praise’ - if any of the grafts bear ‘so so’ fruit . . .
off they go and I’ll keep the Potomac branches!
Hope you’ve got Magness somewhere. FAB pear here.
I do have Magness! I replaced a central leader on one of my trees with Magness. I’ll have to look to see if it has produced any fruit yet. Pears seem to stay pretty healthy here. I have an Anjou and a Bartlett - and even they are staying healthy! I was surprised. I read they are troublesome.
You’re really rolling the dice with Anjou and Bartlett. If you’re ever looking for something to graft over, those would be two good candidates.
I have replaced the Central Leaders on both. And some other branches. We’ll see . . .
Anyone have Potomac fruiting/growing well over a few seasons on Quince rootstock? I’m wondering about long term compatibility.
