Today I noticed a pear tree growing at the end of my driveway but the good feeling was quickly dashed after identifying it as a callery pear but perhaps I can make lemonade from a lemon.
Can this be used as root stock? When it gets bigger? Currently only about 4 feet tall.
Meaning I can "undwarf" a pear tree if I wanted?
Lastly and most important; using it as rootstock won't pass on the lack of fruit will it? From what I read vigor, disease resistance, cold resistance and soil adaptability are what's passed from root to tree
