The rock pear does not bloom - what to do?
In the past, the edible fruits of the rock pear were usually used in many different ways, but today the plant is usually planted in many a garden because of its pretty flowers and the impressive autumn color. If the plant remains without flowers, it can understandably cause some frustration.
Usually a matter of location
Rock pears need locations with as much sunlight as possible for healthy growth. In contrast to many other plants, the undemanding pear trees do not go directly into full shade. But you can not usually flower at such locations. On the other hand, when clusters are planted in full sunshine and in semi-shade within a garden, the preference for full sun locations is usually quite clear based on the number of applied flowers and fruits. In an emergency, non-blooming pear trees should be replanted as far as possible or shadow sources removed, depending on the size already achieved.
Fix problems in the root area of a rock pear
It does not necessarily have to be due to the lack of sunlight, if a rock pear does not bloom even after several years at one location. Sometimes problems in the root area of the plant can be identified as a trigger for the lack of flowers. In the absence of flower formation, check the following factors:
Sometimes it can be the solution to the problem of lack of flowering when a young pear bulb is dug up and finally replanted into an intensely loosened plant hole.
Troubleshooting in case of lack of flowering of a rock pear in the pot
Even in the pot cultivated rock pears do not always get as desired for flowering. Sometimes so-called turning roots can be the reason for this problem. These usually form when the plants have been squeezed into a planter that is far too small. Often then brings the transplanting in a generous sized plant pot the desired result of a lush flowering.
Tips
If a clump of pear radiant with flowers in previous years does not flower at all, it is neither a reason for panic nor for horticulturist vigilance with an ax. As is the case with some types of fruit, due to climatic conditions there may be a complete loss of flowering without further influencing factors.
