I've heard that they need another pear or mountain ash near by to help
pollinate. Something that has similar flowering times would be a must.

Fruited a bunch of times, never very many fruit (does it need a
pollinator I wonder), and the fruit has gotten some kind of maggot
before it has had a chance to ripen. Which is to say I haven't had the
pleasure of tasting them yet.
