320 CULTURE OF THE GRAPE. 



Hamburg, Golden. A fine, new, white grape ; bunches 

 large and shouldered ; berries large, oval, pale-yellow ; 

 skin thin ; flesh tender, rich, vinous ; very free and showy, 

 ripening with, and a fine contrast to, the Black Hamburg. 



Hamburg, Mill-Hill. Much like Wilmot's, and per- 

 haps identical. 



Hamburg, Pope's Black. This is said to be similar 

 to but earlier than the old Black. 



Hamburg, Victoria. Resembles Black Hamburg ; the 

 bunches being somewhat larger and more tapering; the 

 berries very similar. As it is so difficult to distinguish 

 them, there is much confusion in the two kinds. 



Hamburg, White. This is the Portugal Grape of com- 

 merce sent to all parts of the world, packed in kegs, or 

 jars filled with saw-dust. The clusters are large and 

 well-shouldered ; berries large, oval, white ; flesh crisp 

 and sweet, coarse, and of third quality; ripens late, and 

 keeps well. 



Hamburg, Wilmofs. Short compact bunches ; ber- 

 ries very large, round, black, with a peculiarly dented or 

 hammered appearance ; a fine grape, but a little coarser 

 than Black Hamburg. 



Hamburg, Wilmofs, No. 16. Scarcely distinguishable 

 from the Black Hamburg.
