Re: got my loquat planted/ now need tree recommendation

What crepe myrtle are you referring to? Just curious-'Natchez' (which is white) gets 25-30 ft tall and is gorgeous with peeling cinnamon colored bark.

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....
