Southern Pears

What happened to harrow sweet in the bags? Sunburn?

I’m not sure but some appeared to have scab or rust. They didn’t appears to be able to deal with the extra moisture inside the bag.

You guys get scion wood for Leona from one of us next year. It looks like it will work for me here in Kansas. Leona is nearly unknown but you can see more here Leona Pear. I know some of you are familiar with it but i believe we need to get more of them out there asap. We dont want this variety lost.

No flowers on Anjou again this year because it budded to early. I am glad I grafted a couple different varieties to it now.

After I finish cleaning that field up in my front section of land I will be able to see better how many trees can be added up there. I am thinking it will be many! I really would love to start adding several different pear varieties and may be asking some of you for scions this winter. I will also be asking more questions about rootstock and so forth

My grafts are all coming along nicely so hopefully I will also be able to send scions out in a couple years myself
