OF VINES. 167 



5^. New Muscat of Jerusalem. This was in- 

 troduced by Mr. Phillip Miller, a vine oi' which is 

 now in the Botanic Gardens at Chelsea. It has 

 ^arge round berries of a red colour; some of which 

 I have, in a fine season, seen as large as a goose- 

 berry ; but, as it does not ripen well on the natural 

 wall in this country, it might be worth while to try 

 it in a hot-house, or vineiy. It was introduced 

 here about thirty-six years ago. //. v,

 This has fine large berries, and the bunches grow 

 to a large size : I have had them, in a favourable 

 season, on the natural wall, weigh a pound and a 

 half. This grape very well deserves a place in the 

 hot-house and vinery. It ripens on the natural 

 wall* in October. Last season (1801) I left some 

 of them on the vines till the middle of November.
