Bradford / Callery / Flowering / Cleveland Pear is an invasive tree in North America that takes over disturbed soils, meadows and early successional spaces. The tree spreads rapidly because birds eat the small pears during the fall and winter, and deposit the seeds around the area. The Bradford Pear, and any other invasive plant, should not be planted because it outcompetes our native, beneficial vegetation that our wildlife need. Our native insects cannot eat or use the tree or its leaves to complete their lifecycle, which ultimately means less insects for our birds, reptiles and other primary predators. A native tree will support many more insects and caterpillars, which are the primary food that birds need to raise their young.
