I have some questions that hopefully those who have grown Shipova can answer. Will this dwarf version fruit earlier?
Also, is fireblight a problem?
I have three other pears in my orchard. Two are Asians and the other is Le Nain Vert, a 15th century miniature. None of them seem have fireblight problems. There are Mountain ash trees in the neighborhood (mine was hit by lightning, split in two and was removed last June). So, I think I have pollination covered.
