 Plants. While the fruits are not always quite as large as Black Beauty, it ripens fully ten days earlier 

 and is suited to more northern climates. 



The plants oranch freely near the ground and grow in well-rounded bushes. The fruits arc thick, 

 •f most attractive shape, and in color a lustrous purplish black. This coloring is uniform over the whole 

 fruit, and does not fade at the blossom end, as do so many of the older varieties.
