LITTLE KNOWN VARIETIES. 259 



Delmar (Hyb.). Munson. Delaware and Martha. 



Denison. Munson. Seedling of Moore's Early. 



Detroit. T. N. Chase, Detroit, Mich. Very 

 much like Catawba. 



Diana Hamburg (Hyb.). Jacob Moore. This 

 can scarcely be called a new grape, but it is one that 

 does not appear to have made many friends away from 

 home. Too late in ripening, and the vine is tender and 

 subject to mildew. 



Dinkel. Munson. Seedling of Catawba, and, 

 from the description, is not as good as its parent. 



Dr. Collier (Hyb>). Munson. Post Oak crossed 

 with Lindley. Large, dark red. 



Dr. Hexamer (Hyb.). Munson. Post Oak and 

 Triumph. Large, black. 



Dr. Wiley. Origin unknown. Named by Judge 

 Samuel Miller. Large, dark red. Vine healthy and 

 hardy. 



Early Dawn (Hyb.). Raised by Dr. Wm. A. M. 

 Culbert, Newburgh, N. Y. A black grape, and said to 

 be a hybrid between Black Hamburg and Isabella. It is 

 barely possible, but scarcely probable, that a valuable 

 variety could be produced from such parents. 



Early Ohio. A chance seedling found in the 

 grounds of N. A. Hunt, Euclid, 0. A medium-sized 

 black grape, highly extolled by those who are interested 

 in selling the vines. 



Eclipse. Another chance seedling, parentage un- 

 known. Fruit greenish- white, ripens with Concord. 



Early Victor. Same origin as the above, but 

 fruit black; ripening early, or with Hartford. Intro- 

 duced by Mr. John Burr, of Leavenworth, Kan. 



Edmiston. Originated with D. G. Edmiston, 

 Adrian, Mich. Seedling of Concord, and resembles its 

 parent, but described as having a tough skin, and ripen- 

 ing a few days earlier.
