Pear

Williams Pear just started to form, I will take most of these off, just leaving the biggest and strongest on the tree.

Looks promising for a great crop...

Lovely capture of that developing fruit. Removing some to reduce competition must be quite laborious. Like your POV. Fav

[Babs]

Super detail.

[Hazel]

Nicely captured. I am hopeless at taking off buds etc - feels wrong always to me!

[Beryl Lloyd]

Great shot and like @quietpurplehaze -- I loath de budding etc -- but sometimes its a must for the right result for the gardener - FAV

@tonydebont @julzmaioro @quietpurplehaze Thank you, if you thin out your crop they make bigger pears, I do the same with my apple trees, the only one I don't do is the big old apple tree because it would take to long, lt sheds a lot of the the small ones itself.

@beryl @tonygig

Yes. I know the science but it seems a waste!!!! (I'm not a gardener, thankfully!)

[KoalaGardens🐨]

oh they are fascinating!

[Sam]

Send the ones you don't want to me Tony!!!! They look gorgeous :) FAV

[Jennifer]

Great shapes and pov! How exciting to see them starting to form

[Peter Dulis]

lovely capture ...

[Tricia O'Donnell]

Beautiful capture

[gloria jones]

Excellent capture of details and textures

[Joy's Focus]

Wow, that is so alien in a surreal kind of way. Fav!

[Dione Giorgio]

Fav. Superb capture and pov. Fav.

[Chris Johnson]

They have such an interesting design!

[Lee]

As @joysfocus says they look a little alien to me too. Great detail too.

[Catherine]

I have never seen them like this - have a Williams in my garden but it is too high to see!

[Christine]

Good shot

[Margo]

Very nice capture

[Jane Pittenger]

Wow! Looks as if they set well

[Rachel]

Such a good idea to take some of the flowers off. Do you grow lemons, and so you do that with those?

[Dinah Pinkston]

Wonderful pov; this close-up beautifully shows off the detail and texture of the buds. Fav!

[Ivan]

Superb! :)
