A short time ago there was a tiny amount of blossom. Now the sun has made these 2 trees really bloom

These are beautiful Djorac. How old are the trees?

I think about 4 years Songthrush..... They never wanted to be pears for heirs as the saying goes. If our trees don't bear much, they have always been substituted. We have three really old minarette apples further along. One of them is poised to bloom for Britain, it has so many buds. They had a thorough winter prune, as a hint to get on with it or else. We grew Cordons in another garden and the pears were better there too. We had 2 Huuuuge very productive pear trees, but the old apple trees were useless.
