Seckel Pear

[ToddG]

Does anyone have any Seckel Pear trees producing. I'm planning on planting a few in the spring and was wondering if they will drop from the tree if they aren't harvested.
Thanks,

I have 2 planted that are 5 years old and 20 foot tall. mine grow like weeds and have bloomed 2 years in a row with out any fruit. mine bloom early and I think late frost has gotten them every year. If it happens again this year I plan on grafting them over to a gate pear from the wildlife group.

Thanks for the info. I might look for a different one.

Anyone getting seckels? My tree never made a fruit yet but this year it's loaded for the 1st time. Wondering what to expect. Fruit looks clean so far and so does the tree. Seems to be a leave alone tree. Never been sprayed.

Mine has 2 pears on it for first time this year. About 5 years old...been a slow grower. Maybe an 8' tree right now
