Hi Brad and thanks. From what I understand, seedpods will come if the flowers get pollinated by a pollinator like a hummingbird or if they pollinate themselves, which happens sometimes, but I think pollination happens with some hybrids more easily than with others. Also, I think the more mature trees get them more frequently than the less mature ones. Pollinating by hand is said to be difficult to do because of the design of the flowers. Here's a picture of the reproductive parts of the flowers.

That sounds like a neat tradition you had with your son and pear trees.

Be well too:-)
