Flowering Pear
Heatherwood Spring
Our flowering pear is one of our springtime garden stars. This pear along with the columnar maple were on the property when I moved in ten years ago. Today it anchors the southeast corner of the upper lawn and provides welcomed summer shade to a part of our lower patio. It is leaning with the prevailing winds and it leaves behind messy little pear drupes. Yet, it has character and is still one of our senior garden stars.
