This is the Callery pear originally from Vietnam and southeast Asia renamed in the USA. It is being heavily planted as it is rapid growing to the 16-26 ft. maximum. Unfortunately that rapid growth causes the wood to be somewhat weak so it does not always stand up well to heavy snows and ice storms. As you can see it was a beautiful day today when I shot this.
