Just got and planted my Christmas gift from work yesterday. A dwarf pear tree, can't wait for spring to plant lavender, rosemary, strawberry and other flowers around it. But the rest of the garden is still a bit messy

Very nice! I have a dwarf pear I planted in my front yard. When it blossoms, it’s very beautiful. It’s my favorite plant in I own (I have a lot). If you are too late to eat the pear or just not interested, bury the pear in dirt and you will have another one in a year. I have the original and 3 babies in 2 years.
Does it only produce a single pear per season?
Mine is still quite small. It produced 2 pears the first season and only 1 the second season. I think the number will go up as it gets bigger. But it had 100s of blossoms both years, so it could be a pollination issue.
