I started it from seed. I was very careful about what I was planting. Of the yellow pear seeds I planted, I had 4 that were fit for planting when the time came. Of the 4, I have 3 yellow pears and one mystery...

I love Yellow Pears... That is why I have so many of them.

What is the source of your YP seeds?

Did you receive them or have you saved them yourself?

It might be a Mis-seeding(i know you are careful),
or it might be a “stray seed”.

It could also be a “Cross” pollination result.

Even established seed(s) varieties can; or Seed Companies
CAN DIFFER in “Variations”: (WINK)

SAVE THE SEEDS from those tomatoes.
Particularly if they are GOOD.

When the Toms are ripe, Evaluate everything about them.
Size, Wgt, Color, skin depth, texture, flavor:-sweet-acid.

You never know Abner.
You just might have a DUD or a WINNER, or something that
is between and can be grown into something better.

I forgot to ask you to document the plant’s height, girth,
and other growth descriptions and “habits”.

BEST O’ LUCK...(wink)
