Yes! We have one of these nearby. Our neighbor has it planted in the parking strip. It's very prolific even though there's no other pear trees nearby. The pears fall all over the street and sidewalk in the late summer. We call it the bombardier Pear.

I’ve not come across sand pears, one to look out for. Thanks.

I answered the third poll as more than once a month because I was thinking it could become too demanding to find a writer and take such effort it becomes a chore and detracts from the primary street tree function, which is itself a big enough task!
