Hi
I planted a James Grieve pear tree 7 years ago and never had any blossom let alone any fruit.Its in well drained soil in a sunny location south facing.Its about 8ft tall and I have never pruned it.Any ideas please as to why no blossom/fruit since planting?
Thank you

Hi Don,
James Grieve is an apple tree as far as I know.
No wonder you don't have harvest apples yet. ( if I'am right
)
Maybe the cutting of the pear is placed on the wrong stemwood.
If it never had blossom in 7 years I'am afraid it will not happen in the future aswell.
Better buy a new tree and be assured of fruit next summer
Sorry my apple tree is the James Grieve! Looks like a new pear tree then.I bought the present one from a supermarket-maybe that was a mistake.
