Pyrus calleryana - 'Red Sire'
 
Pyrus Red Spire is a medium-sized deciduous tree with a striking upright, pyramidal growth habit, making it a standout in any landscape. This elegant variety is prized for its vibrant autumn foliage, transitioning into brilliant shades of red, adding seasonal interest during the colder months. In spring, an abundance of large white flowers with subtle pink shading creates a spectacular display.
 
Ideal for providing shade, Pyrus Red Spire is well-suited for street plantings, parks, and large residential gardens. When planted in rows along narrow streets or avenues, it creates a stunning visual impact. This hardy tree thrives in full sun and prefers humus-rich, well-drained soils. It is highly resistant to disease, tolerant of wind damage, and requires minimal maintenance.
 
For best results, water regularly until established and apply a high-quality mulch to retain soil moisture. Pyrus Red Spire can reach a mature height of approximately 12 metres and a width of 8 metres.
