burn some and smell the smoke, then you'll have your answer. I personally do not like the way bradford pear smells when it burns. if you do, then go for it.

Hi Chris, Bummer! :ohmy:
I know at the moment things seem to be very sucky. But you and your family all woke up today and as far as I'm concerned if we wake up it's all good no matter how it turns out.
Hang in there you will overcome.

I have seen several threads in other forums and it always seems that there are lots of questions and only a little real experience. I agree with Fidel -- if you like smell of the smoke, it is okay to give it a try,
Here is a link that is very positive about it.
