If you get close enough to look at it, and it smells awful, then it is probably a flowering pear. 
If it smells good or not at all then it is probably an apple.

Driving around town yesterday, and these pears are blooming all over the place. A cold front came thru last night and it’s only in the 40s, with it dropping to 27 tonight.
So, guess I’ll be helping Mom cover some plants today.

The flowering pears run a little ahead of normal pears. The temperatures tonight are dipping all over so let’s see what happens
They are blooming here too, not all but some are. There are some at a gas station here in town that are compleatly bloomed out but I suspect it gets even more heat on a sunny day with the protection from the building and the blacktop.
