| I could not believe what I was seeing...In the Burpee catalog this year they are offering the yellow pear as a graft. I've grown it a few times (until I found there were far better cherry types) and it is so vigorous and productive that I can't see what grafting could possibly offer to it. I can think of a many other varieties that would benefit from grafting. |

| I'm one of those weird types who likes Yellow Pear. It's pretty, it's hardy, and the flavor is old timey, not sweet, and not in my face bold. I agree though, why offer it as a graft? |

| Strangely it might be that It is one of the top ten tomatoes that gardener here on GW said they will not grow it again, running neck n neck to Mr. Stripy. |
