DESCRIPTION OF VARIETIES. 241 



EUMELAN. 



An accidental variety, found at Fishkill, New-York. 

 Said to be a very early black grape, of the highest quality. 

 "Not yet disseminated. It was at one time proposed to 

 call this grape Washington, and is so published in the 

 American Horticultural Annual for 1867. 



EUREKA (Prince's.) 



Announced as a new variety with but one seed in each 

 berry. It is, however, a Diana. 



EUREKA. 



Sent out by D. H. Bogue & Son, from Attica, New- 

 York. From the appearance of the vine I conclude it is an 

 Isabella, or very much like one. 



EYA. 



A seedling from Concord, raised by S. Miller. Fruit 

 white, not fully tested. 



EWING. 



Of Isabella origin, not healthy, and altogether doubtful ; 

 from Jefferson City, Missouri. 



FANCHER. 



This variety has every appearance of being the Cataw- 

 ba, and yet it grows well, and has fully ripened, at Lansing- 

 burgh, New-York, where it is scarcely possible for so late 

 a variety as the Catawba to mature. Having personally 

 examined this grape, on what is supposed to be the origi 

 nal vine, I am satisfied that it is a fruit of excellent 

 quality, and that it ripens in the open air farther north 

 than I have ever known the Catawba. The Saratoga is 

 very similar to, if not identical, with Fancher. Intro- 

 duced by T. B. Fancher, Lansingburgh, New-York.
