Before the start of this summer, I posted my concerns after our Bradford Pear trees were "trimmed". Now that the summer is just about over, I have to admit I was way wrong. This was the best thing we've done with the yard so far....
Not only are they already full of new growth, but more importantly - I'm not worrying every time a storm goes through the area. I know these trees are not going to fall on our cars, or on our neighbor's house.
So the moral of this story is - Don't Panic. I guess these tree-trimming guys know what they're doing!
--->We finally have it! Here's the contact information for the Brentwood tree trimming service which did such a lovely job on Abby's Bradford pears.

I have 2 Bradford Pears that have not bloomed and I have had them for several years. I am also interested in why they do not bloom.
We planted a dozen Bradford Pear trees about six or seven years ago. While other Bradford Pears in our area are full of bloom in April our trees go straight to green leaves with very few blooms. I keep thinking maybe next year but so far very few blooms have appeared. What can we do to correct this situation?
We planted Bradford Pears down our driveway and they have never bloomed.. they go straight to leaves..what is the problem?
Can you tell me how to trim a bredford pear tree so that it won't get broke in a wind storm?
I have the same problem as Pam. My Bradford Pear trees do not bloom, just go straight to leaves. My county extension agent could not give me a reason for this. I would appreciate any help I can get.
I have three Bradford Pear trees in my yard. All three bloomed, and two of them have leaves. The biggest one hasn't got its leaves yet. The flowers have turned brownish, and there are still buds on the tree, just no leaves. Is this tree just in shock are am I losing this once beautiful tree?
I BOUGHT A FLOWERING PEAR TREE LAST SUMMER AND IT DIDN'T BLOOM AND I NOTICE THIS YEAR EVERYONE ELSES HAS BLOOMED AND MY HASN'T. IT IS COVERED WITH GREEN LEAVES. IS THERE SOMETHING WRONG WITH MY TREE.
