That column of glossy foliage does the work of a tree in places where a tree normally will not fit: between a driveway and a boundary fence, along a narrow verge, or in a strip garden against a two-storey wall. Spring blossom is white and dense, and autumn colour runs through amber to deep red.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy Javelin Ornamental Pear\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtremely Narrow Crown\u003c\/strong\u003e: A fastigiate habit lets you plant a canopy tree in a corridor barely two metres wide.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReliable Autumn Colour\u003c\/strong\u003e: Turns amber, orange and burgundy in autumn even in relatively mild coastal districts.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDense Spring Blossom\u003c\/strong\u003e: White flowers cover the full length of the column in early spring before leaf emergence.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUrban Toughness\u003c\/strong\u003e: Handles compacted soil, reflected heat, pollution and root restriction better than most deciduous ornamentals.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimal Pruning\u003c\/strong\u003e: The column is natural, not clipped, so it holds shape without annual shearing.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSiting note\u003c\/strong\u003e: Callery pear has naturalised in parts of south eastern Australia, so keep plantings away from bushland and remove any self sown seedlings.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eIdeal Applications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDeciduous Screen\u003c\/strong\u003e: Planted in a tight line it creates a tall green wall in summer while letting winter sun through.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDriveway Avenue\u003c\/strong\u003e: The narrow crown keeps vehicle clearance without constant lateral pruning.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBoundary Strip Planting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Fits garden beds too narrow for a conventional shade tree, including between a house and a side fence.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormal Repetition\u003c\/strong\u003e: Rows of matched columns give strong rhythm along a facade, courtyard or car park edge.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSpecimen \u0026amp; Installation\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpacing (screening\/hedge):\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.5 to 2m\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpacing (feature\/avenue):\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.5 to 3.5m\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBest Planting Season:\u003c\/strong\u003e Autumn through winter while dormant, or spring in cold districts\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil \u0026amp; Drainage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tolerant of most soils including clay, provided water does not pond around the crown\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEstablishment Care:\u003c\/strong\u003e Water deeply weekly through the first two summers, wetting the full root ball rather than the surrounding surface.
