ornamental pear
Landscaping flowering tree
Ornamental pear refers to pear tree varieties cultivated for appearance rather than fruit.
They produce masses of white blossoms in spring and often have striking fall foliage, making them popular street and landscape trees.
The small, hard fruit is inedible.
The most common variety, the Bradford pear, has fallen from favor because its weak branches split easily and the species has become invasive in parts of North America.
