More fireblight on the Asian pears than at any time in the past 10 years, Clapp's Favorite, which lost easily 50% of the tree to FB & pruning two years ago and has never really recovered, is all but dead - with only a single branch surviving this year's FB onslaught.
No more FB than usual in the apples - some cultivars are more susceptible than others(but I'd have to pull my orchard map to tell you which ones are hit this year.
