Forelle Pear Plum Type_European Firm flesh with typical denseForelle 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.
