Hello!
My wife and I have heard potentially distressing things about Bradford Pear Trees, of which we have one in our back yard approximately 15 yards from our home extending roughly 10 feet above the apex of our roof.
We've both heard and read about the susceptibility they have of falling virtually without warning; this particular tree is obviously older, so is it advisable to cut it down now as a preventative measure?
If I photo would help justify your counsel, please provide me with an email address and I'll attach one.
Thank you!
