2011-05-07 Burgenland, district Mattersburg (Kogelberg, 290 msm Quadrant 8264/4).German name: sterreich-BirneMany thanks to Georg Schramayr for presenting this interesting cultivar on excursion:This pear tree cultivar (see also other shots, linked below) has a bark similar to oak, branches which are arcing downwards (while it's all upwards growth with branches of Pyrus pyraster), leaves which are hairy and tiny fruit with a peculiar round-ish shape. It is not a grafted one but a 'true' hybrid, reproduction is possible either through seeds or through root sprouts.The populations in Eastern Austria (mainly Burgenland and neighbouring Lower Austria) are very diverse - or, as Georg Schramayr put it, each tree is individual, slightly different from others: so those seem to be a true hybrid swarm which hasn't reached the stage of fixed features.They were once cultivated in the entire region but now are dwindling rapidly in numbers; of their assumed parents, Pyrus pyraster still is fairly common (but still endangered as modern agriculture has little use for their fruit) while Pyrus nivalis is extremely rare in Austria - if not already extinct (it is still not too uncommon in neighbouring Hungary though). Parentage of Pyrus austriaca however is disputed, or so it seems.In some regions (noticeably, Eastern Styria and Bucklige Welt in Lower Austria) some plantations still exist, the fruit is marketed as 'cherry pear' (because of size and shape of their fruit).The tree shown here, according to Georg Schramayr, is the only one left in this part of Kogelberg, but there exist more elsewhere, e. g. in Rosaliengebirge.
