Obovate pears may be either Doyenne-form, when they slight-ly approach pyriform; Buffum-shaped, or distinct obovate,when gradually rounded toward the stem with no approachto a neck; or Bloodgood-shaped, similar to the last, but oftenshorter and tapering, or rounded into the stalk. These forms are, of course, more or less variable in thesame varieties, but those more generally prevailing areadopted.
