ripening. It is rather an early variety, and ripens in a vinery in the 

 beginning of September. 



Chasselas Musque reproduces itself very freely from seed, hence the 

 number of its synonyms. In 1845 Mr. Josling, a nurseryman at St. 

 Albans, introduced it under the name of Josling's St. Albans, and in 

 1862 it was sent out by Mr. F. J. Graham, of Cranford, Middlesex, 

 under the name of Graham's Muscat Muscadine, and tin-re is no doubt 

 but that both of these gentlemen acted in perfect good faith in stating 

 that they had raised their plants from seed.

CHASSELAS ROYAL. Mr. Rivers has a variety under this name 

 which he describes as "Berries, round, large, of a pale amber when 

 ripe. Bunches, short and thick, with shoulders. A great bearer. A 

 new and excellent grape."

 Chasselas Rouge Royal. Chasselas de Falloiu: 



CHASSELAS VIBERT. Bunches, long, cylindrical, and well set. 

 Berries, large and round. Skin, thin and transparent, yellowish white, 

 but when highly ripened, of a fine pale amber colour, and sometimes 

 with a rosy tint. Flesh, firm, juicy, sweet, and sprightly, but not 

 rich. 



This, in the form and size of the bunches and berries, resembles the 

 Prolific Sweetwater ; but it is readily distinguished from all the Sweet- 

 waters, to which section it belongs, by the bristly pubescence of its 

 leaves, both above and beneath. I have found it about eight days 

 earlier than Royal Muscadine. The vine is hardy and prolific, and 

 well adapted for pot culture. It may be grown hi a cool vinery. 

 The leaves die yellow.
