There is a real old pear tree on the land my work used to own. They sold the 2 acre chuck this tree is on and this fall or early next spring the land will be cleared. I just checked the tree and it's loaded with pears. What's the best way to preserve the genetics of this tree? Take some of the pears an try to grow trees from seed, or take some grafts off the tree and graft them to root stock? If grafting is the answer, when do I take the grafts?
