Notes

2 pear trees with slightly different fruiting times espalliered with a new no dig herb patch replaced a messy patch of grass and daisies. I have planted both trees into the same hole to try and restrict their growth. They will pollinate each other and hopefully provide an extended crop. The neighbour also has a pear tree so cross pollination shouldn't be an issue.

Experimental: this feature is new and might be flaky. These dates are estimates from 25 km weather-model data, not readings from a station at your garden, so a cold spot can be colder. They may be wrong, so check your national weather service and ask local growers before relying on them.
