Agreed, it's easier to buy than have to tend, spray and gather the fruit anymore.Firestick said:That is the way to go if you plan on canning them for a delicious winter treat. Same with cherries.
We live at 7350'. I have a cherry tree that I planted 20 years ago, about a year ago it had 1 cherry and after 20 years it is 6' tall. One pear tree about the same height after 10 years and never a pear. About the only thing that grows well in this soil is "oak brush" and weeds!Wonder if the elevation along the divide that varies between about 6,000 to 7,887 feet has anything to do with growing them ?
