492 THE CUKKANT. 



WHITE DUTCH. 



New White Dutch. Reeve's White. Dana's New White ? 



White Crystal. Morgan's White. White Leghorn. 



White Clinton. White Antwerp. 



This is precisely similar to Red Dutch in habit, but the fruit is 

 larger, with rather shorter bunches, of a fine yellowish white color, with 

 a very transparent skin. It is considerably less acid than the Red Cur- 

 rants, and is therefore much preferred for the table. It is also a few 

 days earlier. Very productive. 



WHITE GRAPE. 

 Imperial White. Imperial Blanc. 



Bunches moderately long. Berries very large, whitish yellow, sweet 

 and good. Yery productive. Branches more horizontal than White 

 Dutch, and less vigorous. 



WHITE PROVENCE. 



A strong, upright growing variety, leaves often silvery edged. 

 Fruit yellowish white. Bunch short, tapering. Not as productive 

 or profitable as White Grape. 



CLASS II. 

 BLACK CURRANTS. 



BANG UP. 

 A variety similar, and no way superior, to the Black English. 



BLACK GRAPE. 

 Ogden's Black Grape. 



Very much resembling Black Naples, but the plant, perhaps, a 

 stronger and more vigorous grower. 



BLACK NAPLES. 



The Black Naples is a beautiful fruit, the finest and largest of all 

 Black Currants, its berries often measuring nearly three-fourths of an 

 inch in diameter. Its leaves and blossoms appear earlier than those of 

 the Common Black, but the fruit is later, and the clusters, as well as 

 the berries, are larger and more numerous. 



COMMON BLACK. 



Black English. Casis. 



The common Black English Currant is well known. The berries 

 are quite black, less than half an inch in diameter, and borne in clus- 

 ters of four or five berries.
