A more showy ornamental tree can scarcely be introduced to decorate the shrubbery or plantation, however its beauty when blooming is of short duration. The flowers are large, of a pale red when open and the fruit is of little account and sparingly produced. Trees of this species will grow to twenty or thirty feet in the home garden. It is usually increased by grafting it on the Crab Flock. Pyrus Spectabilis. Botanical art print #28
