I offer one from the back deck on this dreary CrabAppleLane Sunday. This is our backyard Bradford Pear tree. It still has a mixture of green, yellow, red, and brown leaves along with a plethora of Bradford pears. No idea if the pears are edible but nothing I know eats them.

Blog of the day here.
Quote from said blog: "It's kind of ridiculous that the Panthers are still scraping to secure the division at 11-4, with the Arizona Cardinals floundering at 8-7 yet locked in for a home playoff game, but hey, that's just the way it goes."
You painted that leaf, right? Why not try one of those pears; I thought Bradford pears were what we bought at Winn-Dixie?
The red leaves fascinate me a bit more than most. Not sure why. I think you're thinking of Bartlett pears. Bradford pears don't get any larger than the ones pictured ... about the size of your average marble.
