Introducing the Pyrus calleryana, also known as the Callery Pear. This stunning deciduous tree is native to China and can grow to heights of 15-20 meters with a conical to rounded crown. Its oval, glossy dark green leaves are 4-7 cm long and slightly paler underneath. The Callery Pear is most striking in early spring when its white flowers bloom in abundance, measuring 2-3 cm in diameter. The trees produce a unique scent some find distasteful, but its wood is highly prized for its fine texture and is used in the production of woodwind instruments and furniture veneers. In autumn, the foliage turns brilliant colors ranging from yellow and orange to red, pink, purple, and bronze. Widely used as rootstock for grafting Bradford and other pear varieties, the Callery Pear is an ideal choice for those seeking an elegant and unique addition to their garden.
