I bought two trees last week: (1) Dwarf Kieffer Pear and (2)Dwarf Elberta Peach and put them in my backyard. Labels attached to both trees indicate to use pollinators with them. I have no idea, how to go for that? Please advise. Thanks! Masood |
For fruit trees to bear a heavy crop, they need a different variety for pollination. Your Kieffer pear needs a second pear tree such as Bartlett or Seckel in order to produce fruit; your Elberta peach is self-fruitful and will not need a second peach tree for pollination. Of course, the more peach and pear trees you have, the larger the crop you'll be able to harvest. |
