    2nd for Bradford pear! The flowers smell fishy or similar to semen? Not very pleasant smelling, but still pretty and often the first trees to bloom in early Spring.

     Bradford pear,  Messy, very brittle wood, considered invasive….but, God , aren’t they beautiful.

    I don’t see it. Is it behind that tree?

    In Dallas, a good option for replacing Bradford pears is either Chickasaw plum or Mexican plum.

    – Chickasaw plums are smaller and form big thickets. The plums are small and sweet.
    – Mexican plums are also called big tree plums and can often reach a size similar to the pear shown here.

    All native plums are an excellent host plant for native insects.

    Ah yes, the cum tree. Pretty to look at, but not to smell.

    OP, these trees are the worst. They smell awful, spread like crazy, and are incredibly weak and tend to break at random.
