What is going to happen this Spring with the blossom buds on our fruit trees? This is a Williams pear. At this stage of March last year, the weather turned arctic as the flowers opened, there were no insects to cross-fertilise, and consequently we had very few pears later. Now we’re wondering if there will be a repeat in 2025 as we enter another arctic-cold few days. Fingers crossed by the time the blossom is fully open, the air will be warmer and we will see bees and wasps visiting us.
