Bradford and all other ornamental pear trees are banned in some states, but not Texas. Here's what to watch out for.
Q: We had a Bradford pear that suddenly, with no warning at all, fell over in a brisk windstorm last March. It could have fallen onto our house, into the neighbor’s fence, or over our landscape, so at least it chose the least damaging place to come down. I knew these trees don’t last long, but I didn’t realize they could fall without any warning at all. I thought your readers might want to know. A: I appreciate your taking time to share your photos from last spring.
Watch out for chinch bugs Relative to your specific tree, notice in your one photo how many trunks are clustered together. They do not form good unions between one another and that’s why the trees decay and split. There is almost no way around it. Q: We have several clusters of Texas mountain laurels. They have been doing quite well for some time, but the trunk of one just checked out hurriedly two weeks ago.
