In 2023, it will be illegal to sell or plant all varieties of Callery pear trees in the state, according to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources.
Bradford pear is a variety of Callery pear , an ornamental fruit tree that is wreaking havoc along roadsides, ditch banks, farm fields and natural areas, including wetlands throughout Ohio, because of its aggressive growth and invasive nature.
Birds consume the fruit of Bradford pear and spread the seeds over long distances, often far from locations where any Bradford pear trees have been planted by humans. The history of the pear tree Callery pear was thought to be beneficial due to its resistance to fireblight and its potential to be crossbred with European pear in order to increase fruit production. In the 1960s, scientists recognized its potential as an ornamental tree and Bradford pear quickly became one of the most popular trees east of the Mississippi River.
As a replacement for Bradford pear, consider planting native trees such as serviceberry, native hawthorn or native crabapples.
