This is what our front yard used to look like. We had two pear trees in the front yard for years. They are not Bradford Pears, I forget what kind they are. Pretty but when they bloomed they stunk plus they were bad for the allergies. I remember the first time that my Forest Ranger dad visited us in our new home. We picked him up at the airport and when we pulled into the driveway he said, "Those are two crappy looking trees, Alan." (You can tell where I got my silver tongue from right.) The problem is that the trees are weak. They branch a lot and the branches are weak points. They eventually split apart. We still haven't replaced them yet. I'm good with that, the grass does better without the trees.
