Written By Kristina Howard
Availability:

Color change when ripe:
Green to Yellow
Known as a great "snacking" pear, Forelles are as wonderful to eat as they are beautiful to see on display.
For what they lack in size, Forelle pears make up in sweet flavor and beautiful appearance. Forelles are one of the few varieties of winter pears that do change color as they ripen. An attractive red freckling, called "lenticels," remains brilliantly visible.
