The Triumph de Jodoigne is a new and com-paratively very little known pear. It fruited here,we believe, for the first time, in our collection,in 1848. Its introduction was preceded by ahigh reputation, and we think we may say itsqualities have not disappointed the expectationsof cultivators. It is as large as the Beurre Biel,which it somewhat resembles in shape, but it isripe and nearly gone before that sort is is a very handsome and showy fruit, having afine, ruddy crimson cheek, blotched, and veryconspicuously dotted with russet. The Bon Jardinier, in which we find the earliest account of this pear,states that it was raised by the late M. Bouvier, a well-known amateurpomologist, who resided at Jodoigne, in Belgium, and who has originatedseveral fine varieties. It was first offered for sale in the French nur-series, in 1844 or 1845, at which time we received our trees from , of Paris. The Triumph
