there are 2 sand pear hybrids seckel x keiffer that would seem to have very good FB resistance (because resistance is coming from both kieffer and Seckel) and good flavor “superior to Kieffer” and Corvallis has them
just curious if anyone has them and why they are not more common; why grow kieffer if this is available?
the descriptions came from the 1957 pear summary at Corvallis (which is too large to upload) and both were genotyped in 2020 so they are available at corvallis
looks like @clarkinks already knows about this of course…
