It is not for nothing that the pear is called a capricious tree - sometimes you can't wait for a harvest for years. And then suddenly it turns out that the amount of fruit is meager.
There is one simple solution to this problem. It is enough to just plant a suitable neighbor next to the pear tree.
Option one
This is the best way to tame the capricious nature of the tree. In company with a pear, even if it is of a different variety and even if it grows behind a fence, your tree will pleasantly surprise you year after year. The main thing is that the distance between them is no more than 5-6 meters.
Option two
If pests interfere with the harvest, then maple can help out. Choose a low-growing variety. This tree is not tolerated by the codling moth.
Option three
The most successful in terms of garden planning is considered to be planting raspberries, black currants, and also grapes or rowan trees next to the pear.
Option four
Another way to avoid an invasion of harmful insects is to plant marigolds, daisies or bells in the trunk area.
An excellent solution to the problem of weeds, diseases and pests.
And finally. Don't try your luck and plant plum, cherry (it's not allowed closer than 10 meters to the pear), as well as jasmine and lilac, viburnum and acacia together with the pear.
However, the pear's first enemies are conifers, which will certainly infect the fruit tree with rust.
