    @home 587 Sorry your post has nt been answered. This will bring it to the top. If it’s in a pot on a patio it needs a pot large enough, feeding, the top inches replaced with good quality jI compost and really looking after it. It looks as though it’s deficient in some kind of mineral. Maybe someone will come up with the answer for you. Cheers Valerie

    Yes it does look like small pink blisters.  On reading the info on rhs I wonder whether it will go away in the winter months or just lie dormant till next year.

    Valerie it is in a large pot and have fed it this year.  It may be the mite - time will tell. Thanks for your response.

    Another question about this pear tree.  It is still growing but has never had any flowers or fruit last year or this.  The variety is Lilliput.  Should I cut this down at some stage and see what happens next year? Any advice please.
