Thanks for the ID update. Fortunately these didn’t have a whole lot of a tap root, so they came out easily and have been pushing growth well.5th one down is a pear. Others probably crabapple.
I have a lot at my disposal too, but most grow a deep tap root I don't care to deal with. I have two I'm dealing with at the moment.
That’s a gorgeous trunk!Here is one I dug last year. I like the bark they eventually develop. I'm air layering another one behind it.View attachment 302547
Thank you!Something new for me, I've discovered a species I had never heard before. It seems it is much more common in the US, I read on the French version of Wikipedia :
Pyrus calleryana :
(...) L'arbre qui a survécu aux attentats du 11 septembre 2001 à Manhattan est un Pyrus calleryana (...)
Good luck with your trees

I've got a pair of calleryana, apparently they can easily be propagated by hardwood cuttings if you want some

I mean, don't give me a "tatane''I don't understand what you mean : PinNoir is French for "Black Pine"
I've never been to the US myself, but to me Manhattan relates to my thirties - not "the thirties" :
