Hi

I am gathering data about naturalisations of the Callery Pear.

Do you think this was planted deliberately, or sown by seed dispersal or grown from a sucker?

What was the environment it was in?

Thanks,
Kate

Hi Kate,
This is an instance where my phone gave the wrong GPS. It is actually in the nature reserve about 80-100 metres away (you can see the road in the background). I will fix this.
It must be from a seed as there are no others nearby.
Note that Pyrus ussuriensis is planted as a street tree in O'Malley (Street Tree Index from Woodcraft Guild ACT).
