How To Grow Pear Trees From Seed - Month 69 Update I started these pear trees from store bought seed (D'Anjou Pears) on 7/10/16. They are now 69 months old, or closing in on 6 years! In this video, I'll catch you up on the 2 pear trees and also show you my other pear varieties, Bartlett and Orient - which are now 7 year old trees. I'm hoping the largest D 'Anjou pear tree can FINALLY set some fruit (now that it has flowered) and finally grown enough to handle the Texas Summers and weathering it's third "winter," fighting fire blight, and acclimating to the Texas Clay. The other pear tree has finally been rescued from the dryer vent area that seems to have stunted his growth over the last several years. I have him in a pot for now but plan on finding him a final resting place soon. Notes: It's been a fight getting them acclimated after spending almost 8 months indoors. I am currently giving them a half dose of tree and shrub fertilizer (14-14-14) and doing my best to keep them well watered and free of pests, like aphids and white flies, as well as keeping my eyes on their leaves for any more sight of the dreaded fire blight! I plan on being more diligent in keeping this series updates throughout the year, so stay tuned and join me as we see them go from seed to fruit bearing trees - I hope!
