Bradford Pear are really pretty in springtime, all the white blossoms, except after maybe 20 years cut them down & start over.
Years ago I lined our driveway with them, but this afternoon some wind gusts (40-50 mph?) another tree-sized limb down. We just noticed it so cut 8ft lengths I'll haul off tomorrow. Some missing ones snapped off at the base years ago...so good advice especially for young people.
They're fast growing, pretty & brittle.
