About the Bradford
Flowering Pear :
The Bradford Flowernig Pear, Pyrus calleryana,
'Bradford', is an extremely popular, vigorous
growing, medium size, shade tree with outstanding
clusters of white blooms in spring and very
attractive terrific yellow to red to purple foliage
color in fall. The Bradford pear is a beautiful
garden addition that produces no edible fruit. This
flowering tree grows best in full sun.
A great benefit of the Bradford is that it is a
rapid grower, achieving a 12 to 15 feet increase in
height over an 8- to 10-year period. Bradford Pear
trees are shallow-rooted and will tolerate most soil
types. They are pest- and pollution-resistant, and
tolerate drought well. It is one of the most
fireblight-resistant cultivar of the flowering
pears. |
