KINDS OF FRUITS. 301 



20. Large Black Cluster. 



The berries are rather small, oval, black, grow 

 close on the bunch, which is not very large, though 

 pretty well shaped. The juice of this fruit is harsh, 

 and makes the palate feel rough, as when having 

 tasted Port wine, which is made from this plant 

 alone. 



21. Black Constantia. 



The berries are of the middle size, rather oval 

 than round, black, but not very high-flavoured. 

 The bunch is moderately large, and well formed. 



22. White Constantia. 



Much the same as the preceding, but on the 

 whole, a large and better fruit, 



23. St Peter's Grape. 



The berries are large, round, and black; the skin 

 thin, and the flesh delicate and juicy ; the bunch is 

 large, and handsomely formed ; and the plant is a 

 good bearer. 



24. Lombard?/. 



The berries are pretty large, black, rather oval 

 than round ; the skin thick, and the flesh soft and 

 juicy. The bunch very long, and unshouldered, 

 on which the berries sit rather closely. The plant 

 is a pretty good bearer.
