The Callery Pear (Pyrus calleryana of Rosaceae) is one of the commonest ornamental plants in the state of MS, native to China & Vietnam. This could be a hybrid variety. Fruits are about 1 cm in dia, ripening brown by the end of fall. Regards Vijayasankar Raman National Center for Natural Products Research University of Mississippi
