Kapoleon.—Leaves broad and shining. Blossoms large. The tree vigorous, and a good bearer. The fruit excellent. Swan's Egg. — A handsome pyramidal tree, and an excellent bearer. The fruit roundish, or obovate. This is one of the commonest pear trees in the market-gardens about London ; and we have introduced the name here, from having ourselves observed the handsome shapes taken by the trees. The fruit, however, as compared with that of the above sorts, is not worth cultivating. The following Scotch pears are recommended by Mr. Gorrie, as forms adapted for landscape scenery ; but little can be said in favour of their fruit, as compared with that of the new Flemish varieties. The Benvie, the Golden Knap, and the Elcho take fastigiate forms ; the latter more especially, Mr. Gorrie says, may be called the Lombardy poplar of the pear tribe. These trees generally attain the height of from 45 ft. to 50ft. in as many years, in the Carse of Gowrie, in Perthshire. The busked Lady and the Poiv Meg take spreading orbiculate forms, such as wiH assort with the ^"cer Pseiido-Platanus, and may be called the oaks and elms of the pear family. (See Gard. Mag., vol. iv. p. 11.) The pear tree, in a wild state, has a pyramidal-shaped head, with thorny branches, at first erect, and afterwards curved downwards and pendulous. The roots are few, and descend perpendicularly, with few lateral ramifications, except in shallow and rich soil. The leaves vary exceedingly in different soils, and in different parts of Europe
