Can you identify this tree?

[Jeadorelalabrador]

Awful photo and label blank - can anyone identify this? Thanks in advance

You have offered no advice to the possible type of tree it is (?) which is what was asked 🌳 😂
As an ex-professional gardener, surely you know that good things grow better with a little sunshine, not shade! Have a great day….

An ornamental pear "chanticleer" grows into a standard shape with a naturally Teardrop shaped canopy.

Nobody can tell you what sort of tree it is because the photo is so bad.

The first question I always ask in design considerations is 'what do you want to do in your garden' hence 'why do you want to know'

Did your pet eat a leaf?
Do you want to plant an orchard in a small garden?

The answer would be completely different depending on why you wanted to know.

I appreciate the lifestyle lecture, Shed Mistress, but right now you're acting more like the Queen of Questions. Any actual tree guesses in that shed of yours?

Why would the answer of a possible guess as to what type of tree 🌲 it is differ, depending on whether my pet cat ate a leaf yesterday or not. 😂
The type of tree remains the same.

I wasn’t asking for my garden designing, not what orchard I want or anything else. No wonder you are an ex professional gardener - you couldn’t answer the question your clients asked!!

Thanks to everyone else I’ve got some ideas. There is a high chance it is pear. 🍐 There is another one that looks similar over the far side of the park. My friend says it is a pear as she asked the guy planting the other one in the park what he was planting and he said fruit trees and she asked what type and he said that one was a pear.

I think the idea is the council has got grants to plants fruit trees from the Tree Council or something and so public people and wildlife can get the fruit. If that’s what it is - you wonderful plant people could well have scored 100% on the guess success. So thanks everyone. I wouldn’t have thought planting fruit trees in summer was good timing!

@Leavesandthings thanks for that link I’m investigating ornamental fruit trees tomorrow!

Why would the answer be any different? The OP wanted it identified if possible, that's all, and it is literally in the thread title.

Whether she wanted something similar, was worried that a neighbour had planted it and it might grow too big, just liked it and wanted to know what it was or even that she was hoping to turn it into firewood, the reason for her wanting to know is irrelevant and is not going to change the tree into another species.

Besides, "Why do you want to know?" is pretty bald as a question and could easily be taken as a sarky "What's it got to do with you?", especially since you just followed it up with another "But why do you want to know?".

And since you don't know what it is anyway, asking that question was a bit futile.

@Jeadorelalabrador if you’re not in a tearing hurry to plant a tree like that, you’ll know for sure if it is a pear in about March next year, as pear blossom is quite distinctive and even a tree that small will flower.

Ornimental pear, crab apple, rose.
Could you take a better photo to your nursery? Ask you gardener to take a walk with you?

@InMySpareTime we aren’t in a huge hurry but we would like to put a tree in late autumn / winter and get it in then before the ground goes too hard. And it’s a good idea to wait and see if it blossoms but it might not have flowered by then.

We don’t need it for privacy etc and the grass area hasn’t survived too well over the summer although grass is grass. We aren’t too worried about the size of the tree as long as we can maintain it. So we have started mapping out some borders with the aim of putting loads of pollinators and put native / climate friendly plants and off to research a nice pear tree. Thanks everyone for all your help and suggestions.
