How to fertilize Common Pear

Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Common Pear after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

I love Spring😊! The flowers are starting to come back 🌺. I asked my fiance to get me a piece of this tree 🌳 across from us. This is Priscilla the Callery Pear Tree. I hope she lives! #plantsmakepeoplehappy #growlights #planttherapy #mothernature

Planted this kieffer pear tree two days ago; should I be worried about the tiny branch-things at the bottom turning brown? When I planted this, I saw the little bits shooting up at the bottom and they were green. Two days later, they’ve turned brown. It doesn’t have any other branches or leaves right now, so I don’t know whether she’s dying in real time or what #PearTree

Why is my pear trees leaves yellowing with the middle staying green then the leaf yellowing more and falling off #PearTree
