KINDS OF FRUITS. 301 



20. Larffe Bladx Cluster. 

 Tlie berries are rather small, oval, black, grow 

 close on the bunch, which is not very large, though 

 pretty well shaped. The juice of this fruit is harsh, 

 and makes the palate feel rough, as when having 

 tasted Port wine, which is made from this plant 

 alone. 



21. Blade Constantia. 



The berries are of the middle size, rather oval 

 than round, black, but not very high-flavoured. 

 The bunch is moderately large, and well formed. 



22. White Constantia. 



j\Iuch the same as the preceding ; but, on the 

 whole, a larger and better fruit. 



23. St Peter^s Grape. 

 TlieT>erries are large, round, and black; the skin 



thin, and the flesh delicate and juicy ; the bunch is 

 large, and handsomely formed ; and the plant is a 

 good beai'er. 



24. L.omhardy. 

 The berries are pretty large, black, rather oval 

 than round ; the skin thick, and the flesh soft and 

 juicy. The bunch very long, and unshouldered, 

 on which the berries sit rather closely. The plant 

 is a pretty good bearer.
