Hello, Adrianna, I not sore about tropical pears but with a normal pear that hasnt moved look at these things one at a time
1)was the ball root system very tight when it was in the pot. If you think it was then gently pull it out and break it up and replant it.
2) Are the feet wet. eg did you water to much when you planted it.
3) Have you fed it correctly. I do not know where you are or what type of soil you have but you may just need pot ash.
If not none of these then I sugest you read the notes I gave yesterday for a cherry tree. Large small trees need to be cut back by a third when planted. The root system is inadequate to handle the tree as is when replanted. Therefore your tree may stay like that until the next growing season while it builds up the root system.
