"Pyrus calleryana 'Bradford', 2016, Bradford Pear, PIE-rus kal-ler -ee-AY-nuh, 50x40 ft Tree, Z5, white, Bloom Month --, In Bed D1 for 19.0 years

 

Ornamental, no fruit:). Bradford’ is particularly susceptible to limb breakage or splitting from strong winds, snow or ice. Although once exceedingly popular, it is now frequently not recommended by nurseries because of breakage potential. Should be considered to be a short-lived tree that may need to be replaced in 15-20 years. One down from a storm in 2015."
