Abstract: A new and distinct variety of a flowering pear tree named ‘Veyna Flowering Pear’ which can be readily distinguished from other ornamental flowering pear trees, i.e. ‘Bradford’ or ‘Aristocrat’ cultivars of Pyrus calleryana, in that this new invention has brighter foliage and larger leaves than the two above-mentioned cultivars, is less pyramidal in form, and produces a brighter and more intense shade of red three weeks later. This new variety is well suited as an attractive ornamental for landscape.
Abstract: This invention is a new and distinct cultivar of pear tree. The tree is a seedling of unknown parentage discovered in 1969 in Cambridge City, Ind., and has been named “Cambridge”. Compared to other ornamental pears, the tree has a highly acute lateral branching structure, forming an upright, pyramidal shape. The new variety forms larger diameter lateral branches early. Its characteristics provide a strong branching structure that is resistant to damage under conditions of icing.
