    It’s assumed that you already have a pear tree; the partridges are just being installed into your pre-existing tree. Don’t be greedy. Mature fruit trees are expensive.

        Ooh dang, AKA Callery Pears, AKA invasive pest. Our state forestry/wildlife department did a limited time buyback of those, dead or alive. Once.

          One nice spring morning I had my windows open. I smelled something awful and started looking around for where the dog had ruined the carpet. Nope, it was just the neighbor’s Bradford pear in full bloom. Such a disgusting scent.
