The Callery Pear, also known as Bradford Pear, is a deciduous tree native to Asia. It is known for its attractive white flowers that bloom in early spring and its glossy green leaves that turn vibrant colors in the fall. This tree typically grows to a height of 30 to 50 feet and has a rounded crown.
Despite its beauty, the Callery Pear has become an invasive species in many areas, particularly in the United States. Its rapid growth and ability to thrive in various conditions allow it to outcompete native plants, leading to ecological concerns.
