Bradford Pear

The Story of a Tree

****************************************************************************************************
In the Spring, our Bradford Pear reliably puts on an annual show of flashy white flowers.
In Summer, it is home to several bird nests.
In the Fall, it puts on a pretty display of red leaves that can last into December; even after all other trees have lost their leaves.
In Winter, it sits quietly waiting for Spring, while also hosting occasional bird visitors.

****************************************************************************************************
Plus it's just always been "there" where I can see it from my backdoor and deck. The downside is that the tree has also seen more than its share of weather damage over the years. Long ago, it lost its symmetrical shape that attract most people to this tree species. The upside, however, is that our family has a lot of good memories connected to our Bradford Pear.
