Description
Pyrus calleryana ‘Chanticleer’ is a highly popular ornamental pear tree, valued for its neat, upright pyramidal form and outstanding seasonal interest. In early spring, masses of crisp white blossom cover the branches before the glossy green leaves fully emerge, creating a striking floral display.
Throughout summer, the foliage forms a dense, tidy canopy before turning brilliant shades of red, orange, and purple in autumn. Its narrow growth habit makes ‘Chanticleer’ ideal for avenues, streets, and gardens where space is limited but height and structure are desired.
Hardy, pollution tolerant, and adaptable to a wide range of soil types, this variety is a reliable and low-maintenance choice for urban and landscape planting.
Supplied as a standard tree with 12–14cm girth in a 45-litre pot, approximately 3–3.5m in height, this well-established specimen provides immediate architectural impact.
