Have you fellows heard of an Intergeneric produced from crossing  a Pyrus with a Sorbus?  My buddy near Michigan swears that he acquired one at a NAFEX convention and it is growing well. Apparently the fruit looks like a small pear.  He was crazy about it when he tasted it.  After eating one at the convention, he claims that there is a wonderful lingering pear aftertaste 15 minutes later.
