Pyrus calleryana
Currently one of the most widely planted ornamental pears in Australia.
Lustrous dark green leaves that turn gold, plum and burgundy in autumn. Small, dull gold to russet coloured inedible fruit.
A superb, upright ornamental pear with a dense habit, masses of spring flowers and attractive foliage throughout summer & autumn. Excellent for sites where lateral space is restricted. Its tough disposition and aesthetic attributes combine to make a wonderfully versatile tree for home gardens or streets and public areas.
Grows 11m H x 6m W. Moderate growth rate.
