Pyrus regelii

About

Pyrus regelii is a species of wild pear in the family Rosaceae, native to Central Asia. A small tree usually 6 m (20 ft) tall, but reaching 9 m (30 ft), its young branches are cloaked in a grey down, which provides visual interest when it is planted as an ornamental. Its leaves, which are also downy when young, are exceptionally variable in shape, sometimes even on the same individual. The fruit are small but typical pears, and are collected and eaten by local peoples. The most xerophytic member of its genus, it is occasionally used as a rootstock for cultivated pear trees, as a garden ornamental, and for reforestation projects, all in dry areas.
