Re: got my loquat planted/ now need tree recommendation

With the emerald ash borer marching across the country, I'd think twice about any Fraxinus.

Well...how about an ash tree...I like our Raywood ash, very pretty

Naw- don't really want another pear.  They are Ok, but they are
everywhere here. Crepe myrtles don't get very big and I want shade for 
the south side of my house again someday....  Thanks for helping me
think about this...

Theresa-there is another ornamental pear that is stonger than
bradofrd- Calliope, or calypso, or something with a "C"   It was bred
after all the bradfors started splitting down the middle. Just a
suggestion in case you want another.  How about a crepe myrtle? Those
are always great IMO.

Thanks for the advice - but I already know the tree is my
responsibility. They came out and cleaned up the half that fell into
the street earlier this year when it split, but made it clear that
the tree was on my property, not the right of way (apparently the
right of way only includes the sidewalk and area between the sidewalk 


and street).

When we moved here, the subdivision planted trees there.  Mine
died, so I was
going to replace it.  Found out there was a 'list' of trees that
could be
planted here enforced by the village.  I didn't care for any of
them, so I let
them replace it with whatever they wanted....and I must say, they do 


take care
of 'that' tree coming thru pruning etc.....

On to a new tree issue:
I need to replace the stupid bradford pear along the street (in the
hell
strip). Any suggestions of what to plant? I want something
deciduous- so
that I get the south sun on the house in winter....
