Pear trees blossom and bear fruit for several years

Pear trees are widely distributed all over the world. The cultivated area and yield of pears in China are second only to apples. So do you know how many years a pear tree can bear fruit?

Pear trees can bear fruit in a few years

In general, it takes about five years for newly planted pear trees to bear fruit, while some varieties may take only four years. Generally speaking, pear trees will enter the full fruiting period after 6-7 years.

Second, the distribution range of pears

Dongfang pear: most of the species are native to China. It has been cultivated for at least 3000 years. Since the 19th century, Chinese pears have been introduced to Europe, America and Japan for cultivation.

Western pear: originated from central Europe to southeastern Europe, Caucasus, Asia minor, northern Persia and other places. It has a history of more than 2000 years. Yantai, Fushan and Muping are planted and become the main producing areas of western pears in China.

Third, the reason why pear trees only blossom but do not bear fruit

1. Partial application of nitrogen fertilizer. The partial application of nitrogen fertilizer will cause the trees to grow luxuriantly, with only branches and no fruit. In addition, some fruit growers apply unripe farm manure into the orchard, causing pear trees to grow tall, but only blossom but not bear fruit.

two。 The drainage is not smooth. Pear flowering period is generally too much Rain Water, orchard stagnant water will frustrate the growth of the tree, thus hanging less fruit.

3. There is a lack of pollination trees. Pear trees belong to cross-pollination plants, which are pollinated within varieties.

The bark of pear trunk is smooth in the young tree stage, and becomes thicker, split longitudinally or peel off with the increase of tree age. Twigs glabrous or velutinous, glabrescent; 2-year-old branches grayish yellow or even purplish brown.
