Forelle pear tree is thought to originate in northern Saxony and later introduced to the states by immigrants in the 1800's. The Forelle pear tree produces a singularly handsome and distinctive fruit, yellow with a crimson blush and trout-like speckling (lenticels) from which comes the name Forelle, the German name for trout (keeps better than trout!). The fruit is buttery without all the juice. And it has a faint but discernible cinnamon spiciness. The Forelle pears flesh is melting, aromatic and rich flavor. The tree is very productive.

My high rate germination tips:
Place the seeds in a sealable plastic bag with wet paper tower . Label and date the plastic bag and put the seeds in the refrigerator for 3-4 month. This refrigeration process mimics what would happen in the wild if the seed overwintered in the soil. Check the seeds periodically and keep them just moist. After 1-four months you can plant the seeds in in a small pot in sterile potting soil 1 inch (2.5 cm.) deep. Place only one seed per pot. Put the pot(s) in a sunny spot and keep the soil moist. The seeds should germinate and produce green growth in three months.
