Pear Trees Are Excellent for Wildlife
If you happen to live somewhere with a large deer population and want to see more of them, planting pear trees can make that dream come true. Deer love pears, and pears are easy to grow if you have a suitable variety for your area. Even without deer, they’re a lovely tree with beautiful blooms.
Unlike many fruiting trees, pears can provide blossoms and fruit in as little as three years with proper care. You’ll want at least two trees, if not more, to ensure cross-pollination. A single pear tree cannot bear fruit without a partner to trade pollen with. You’ll want to check which varieties are compatible and plant them 25-30 feet apart.
Hopefully, you’ve found some excellent tips to overhaul your backyard and make a space you can be proud of and enjoy year-round. There are so many landscaping options, be sure you’re choosing one you have time to take care of that suits your zone and vibe! Stone gardens are acceptable if you don’t have a green thumb or time to weed weekly!
