JL Johnson :veri_mast:<p>Many states have Callery/bradford pear bounties. Google around for detail. Programs vary, but typically you just need a photo of a fresh cut bad guy and the state or a nonprofit will give you a native tree in exchange, for free. These terrible plants are a real problem. The first step is knowledge so please help spread the word. We need to evangelize native species. </p><p> <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/invasivespecies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>invasivespecies</span></a> <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/callerypear" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>callerypear</span></a> <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/bradfordpear" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bradfordpear</span></a> <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/Plantnative" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Plantnative</span></a></p>
JL Johnson :veri_mast:<p>This garbage plant supports zero species of caterpillar, and its fruit is sugary and lacking fat. Of course, we need plants that support caterpillars because birds need caterpillars. Even birds that eat seed feed their babies caterpillars. Callery pear fruit is like donuts— yummy and devoid of nutrition. The birds love it and are happy to spread the seed. <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/invasivespecies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>invasivespecies</span></a> <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/callerypear" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>callerypear</span></a> <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/bradfordpear" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bradfordpear</span></a> <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/Plantnative" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Plantnative</span></a></p>
JL Johnson :veri_mast:<p>Like all invasive species, because it originated elsewhere, and is introduced here it lacks natural predators and disease. It out competes local species and escapes captivity to take over unkept areas, like a cancer.</p><p><a href="https://vmst.io/tags/invasivespecies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>invasivespecies</span></a> <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/callerypear" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>callerypear</span></a> <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/bradfordpear" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bradfordpear</span></a> <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/Plantnative" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Plantnative</span></a></p>

Joe Vilas<p>Someone please help me remember to take a picture of the shittiest callery/bradford pear tree in existence *before* it loses its white bloom &amp; puts out its fake-looking &quot;green* leaves? Ok, it&#39;s not the worst one in existence, but I now have an unusual vantage point that emphasizes this one&#39;s general failure to obey the social contract. ;) </p><p><a href="https://triangletoot.party/@jhv/112045482820082028" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">triangletoot.party/@jhv/112045</span><span class="invisible">482820082028</span></a> <a href="https://triangletoot.party/tags/CalleryPear" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>CalleryPear</span></a> <a href="https://triangletoot.party/tags/BradfordPear" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>BradfordPear</span></a> <a href="https://triangletoot.party/tags/NaturesCumshot" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>NaturesCumshot</span></a></p>

Joe Vilas<p>Have I complained yet about the Bradford pears blooming already? No matter when they bloom, they&#39;re bad trees. Why?
