Why is Drippin' Honey Asian Pear Tree banned from NY shipment?

I tried ordering the above listed pear tree from the only 2 sites that offer it - Gurneys and Henry Fields (as mentioned elsewhere here about this variety ) and both ban it from shipment to NY - why is that? I live in the city in the central part of NY State but have a good size area where I have 4 other Asian Pear trees growing that I purchased from out of state with no problem and this one sounded very interesting so what makes this one so special that it causes a problem for NY? Seriously - I can get bamboo plants to be shipped to me that are known to be highly invasive (not that I want to) but I can't get this pear tree?
