Here is my 4 in 1 pear -- Comice, Orcas, Bosc, Highlands. It was planted in 2003 and has grown very slowly, but has grown each year. It isn't in the best soil, but I keep it mulched with manure and leaves and pine needles and water it with a drip system. It had one cluster of blooms last year. It has one this year as well, but who knows if it will have more. Too soon to tell. It has not yet produced fruit, but the other pear tree I planted that year, had its largest crop ever last year, 8 seckel pears.
I would love it to grow faster, but at least it is growing.
