The highlights

  • Upright conical tree
  • Large tree - grows to more than 12m
  • Stunning single white flowers, glossy leaves
  • Fabulous autumn colour

Description

  • Also known as the Callery pear, this spectacular flowering tree provides unrivalled ornamental value with its bright white blossoms, glossy green foliage and spectacular autumn hues – which, combined with its conical shape, gives a flame-like appearance!
  • Although this tree can reach taller than 12m over time, it can be easily pruned smaller, making it a good choice for gardens of any size (especially thanks to its narrow, upright habit). Tolerant of pollution, this tree is particularly well-suited to urban and avenue planting schemes.
  • Small brown fruits are produced during the autumn months, providing food for birds like starlings and mammals like squirrels. Plus, the springtime blossoms are attractive to pollinating insects like bees and butterflies.
  • Fully hardy (H6) and easy to grow, ‘Chanticleer’ is a tree that undoubtedly deserves a place in your garden. Though this specific variety originates in Ohio, USA, the Callery pear is actually native to Vietnam and China. Its wood has long been prized for use in crafting woodwind instruments.
  • Planting companion plants (also known as guild plants) around your pear tree, such as chives, comfrey and borage, can help your tree flourish in the longer term.

Best plants you will ever get online

I have ordered plants from them twice this year. They arrived well packaged, on time and looked strong and healthy. I feel the staff from Roots plants deal with their plants and customers with passion and care. I can’t wait to order again, price is good as well.

Satisfied customer

Unlike other online sellers, this company are well ahead in the quality stakes. My plant arrived promptly as per their promise and the plant was much more established and healthy than I had expected. It’s the second time I have ordered from them and I have faith in their promise. Excellent service.

A really good quality tree

A really good quality tree, delivered on time and very well packaged. But the emailed planting advice and supporting information was what really impressed me. Thoroughly recommended.
