SPLENDID NEW BLACK GRAPE, THE MUSCAT CHAMPION. 



JAMES VEITCH AND SONS 



WILL SEND OUT, ON AND AFTEK THE FIRST OF JULY NEXT, THIS 

 MAGNIFICENT SEEDLING VARIETY, 



UNDOUBTEDLY THE FINEST YET OFFERED TO THE PUBLIC. 



It was raised by Mr. Melville, of Dalmeney Park, from the Champion Hamburgh, crossed with the Cannon Hall 

 Muscat. It is a very free setting varietv, and succeeds perfectly under the same treatment as the Black Hamburgh. 

 The bunches are large, well shouldered, and the berries of great size, resembling in every respect the Champion 

 Hamburgh, but with a most exquisite and powerful Muscat flavour. 



In the ' Gardeners' Year Book ' for 1862, Dr. Hogg says :— " This is perhaps one of the greatest advances in 

 new grap es we have yet had It is, in fact, a Mill Hill Hamburgh with a Muscat flavour. The bunches are very 

 ^rge and well shouldered, the berries roundish and oblate, and the flesh firm and melting, juicy, richly flavoured, and 

 w ith a fine Muscat aroma " 



In the Report of the Fruit Committee of the Royal Horticultural Society for September 10, 1861, it is thus 

 mentioned :— « The bunch in size and shape had all the appearance of one of the Mill Hill Hamburgh. It was large 

 and well set. The berries were large, round, and oblate, shaped like small oranges, and very much ' hammered.' The 

 fle »h is firm, juicy, sweet, and richly flavoured with a marked Muscat flavour." The Committee were of opmion that 

 't was a decided cross, a very excellent Grape, and well worthy of notice. . , . . „ ,, 



The Editor of the ' Gardeners' Chronicle ' remarks :— " Large both in bunch and berry, possessing a fine Muscat 

 flavour, and, in the opinion of many, one of the best grapes in the world.'; 



The ' Scottish Horticulturist,' in quoting the above, says :— « An opmion we can cheerfully endorse. To those 

 w ho think from the term Muscat that it requires an equal amount of heat to ripen it to perfection, we can assure 

 them that it ripens as early, under exactly the same treatment, as the Black Hamburgh."
