Pyrus salcifolia

Very pretty tree!

Wow I think thats a great tree, love the colour, what colour is the blossom?

The flowers are just white D it looks like a fruit blossom but more compact and neat, it flowers in spring, so looks very effective and fresh - just whats needed after a cold winter! Another bonus is it bears tiny little pears in autumn too, not quite so decorative but the dogs like hoovering them up!
Thanks Sticki, I thought it worth posting as it has matured beautifully without getting too enormous. Lots of books say "small tree" but they end up getting too big and casting too much shade.

Thanks PL

You're welcome D

that`s nice not seen one like that before...

Thanks Numbty

It is a lovely tree PoppyL, looks great there, it looks like you have a mature garden, Gorgeous..

Now that is a tree I could just look at for ages! Not one I've ever seen before. I do love trees.

Wow amazing

It's stunning if only I had more room ( big sigh ) !

Amy this tree was quite small for at least the first ten years and you could cut it back quite hard to keep it in check. I have let the crown develop and it has got higher but only in the last 5 years. I love it for the silvery fresh foliage in spring. The dogs love it for the tiny pears that drop to the ground in Autumn!

It is a beauty....Why don't we see loads of these?

I think I planted this tree when the small weeping willows were in vogue. salix kilmarnock weeping willow, they were selling them everywhere. That was very disapointing, I think I dug it up after about 5 yrs. This tree on the other hand just got better and better, the new foliage in spring is really silvery - I love it~!It has my award of merit. (RGAM)

Stunning!

excellent!
