The pear tree is not one of the capricious trees, but there is a list of plants that are not suitable as its neighbors.
This rule can be ignored, but then you shouldn't expect a big harvest. In addition, the tree will get sick more often.
Therefore, to ensure that the harvest pleases you and the pear does not cause unnecessary trouble, it is better to choose the right neighbors for it.
What does a pear not like?
Agronomists do not recommend planting cherry, apricot or plum seedlings next to pear trees. The proximity of these plants does not allow you to get the maximum yield from them.
Walnut is a tree for which it is difficult to find a neighbor. The plant is famous for its aggressive behavior towards other crops. It's all about the substances that the nut's roots secrete.
Useful neighbors for pear
The fruit tree has not only "enemies". There are plants next to which the pear's potential is revealed to the maximum.
