In my opinion, Bradford Pear trees have two purposes: blooming in the spring and having beautiful colors in the fall. These trees line South Moss street in Searcy and they are beautiful right now. I am always amazed how the bloom start out looking very dingy and gray until fully blossomed then they are a brilliantly white for several days until the blooms give way to the green of the leaves. The trees when covered with leaves have a pear shape. The wood is very soft and as the trees grow they often are destroyed by strong winds. But today I celebrate the beauty of these Bradford Pear tree blooms.
