ELLWANGER & BARRY'S

 variety on this account. 20c. 



Herbert (Rogers' No. 44)— Bunch rather long- but compact ; berry large ; tender, sweet and rich ; early and pro- 

 ductive. A handsome variety, and one of the best of the Rogers' in quality. 25c.

 immense bearer ; a good keeper. 30c. 



Merrimack (Rogers' No. 19)— Bunch medium to large ; berry large ; sweet and rich ; vigorous and productive ; one 

 of the earliest of the Rogers' varieties. 25c.

 large, compact, shouldered, some clusters weighing over twelve ounces. Berry large, round, jet black, covered 

 with a thick bloom ; flesh firm, meaty, juicy, breaking with a rich, sprightly flavor. Skin thick ; berries adhere 

 firmly to the peduncle. Vine vigorous and productive ; foliage large and healthy. Ripens about with the 

 Concord, or a little later, and is a long keeper. $1. 



Moore's Early— Bunch medium ; berry large, round, black, with a heavy blue bloom ; flesh pulpy and of medium 

 quality ; vine hardy and moderately prolific ; ripens with the Hartford. Its large size and earliness render it 

 desirable for an early crop. 25c. 



Senasqua— Bunch medium to large, compact ; berry medium ; tender, juicy, breaking, sweet and rich ; ripens with 

 Isabella; vine vigorous and hardy. Fruit cracks sometimes owing to the thin skin. A desirable garden 

 variety. 25c. 



Wilder (Rogers' No. 4)— Bunch very large, compact, shouldered ; berry large, round, black ; flesh tender, slight pulp 

 at center, juicy, sweet. Ripens about with Concord. Vine vigorous, hardy and a good bearer. Regarded as 

 one of the best of the black varieties, and on account of its size and beauty is very valuable for market. 25c. 



Worden— Said to be a seedling of the Concord. Bunch large, compact, handsome ; berries large— larger than those 

 of the Concord. It ripens a few days earlier, and is superior to it in flavor. Destined to become very popular 

 for the vineyard and garden. 25c. 



RED AND REDDISH PURPLE GRAPES, 



Agawam (Rogers' No. 15)— One of the best of the red varieties ; bunch variable in size ; sometimes large and hand- 

 some ; flesh tender and juicy. Vine a good grower and bearer. 25c. 



Brighton — Resembles Catawba in color, size and form of bunih and berry. Flesh rich, sweet, and of the best 

 quality, equal, if not superior to Delaware ; ripens early, with the Delaware, Eumelan and Hartford. Vine 

 productive and vigorous, but in some localities is subject to mildew. 25c. 



Catawba— Bunches large and loose ; berries large, of coppery red color, becoming purplish when well ripened ; 

 vinous, rich ; requires the most favored soils and situations, good culture and warm seasons to mature per- 

 fectly in Western New York. 20c. 



Delaware— One of the finest of our native grapes. The vine is comparatively slender, but grows freely, and is per- 

 fectly hardy in this climate ; ripens early. Bunch small and compact ; berries small, light red, with a violet 

 bloom, beautiful ; sweet, sugary and vinous, with a musky aroma. It justly claims a place in every garden. 25c. 



Diana— About the same size and color of the Catawba, of which it is supposed to be a seedling ; a beautiful and 

 delicious grape ; ripens about the same time as the Isabella. Vine remarkably vigorous ; rather a shy bearer 

 while young. 25c. 



Gfertner (Rogers' No. 14) — Bunch large ; berry very large, round ; skin thick ; color a beautiful light red, with 

 bloom, fruit almost transparent ; pulp tender, sweet, pleasant rich. The most showy grape in our collection. 

 Vine vigorous and productive. Desirable either for the garden or vineyard. 25c. 



Iona— Bunch medium to large, shouldered; flesh soft, tender, juicy, brisk sub-acid, high flavored, sprightly and 

 refreshing ; keeps till mid-winter with its freshness unimpaired. In this locality one of the finest tabie grapeo. 

 A little earlier than Catawba. Should be in every garden where the climate admits of its being ripened. It 

 must not be allowed to overbear. 20c. 



Bindley (Rogers' No. 9)— Bunch medium, somewhat loose ; berry medium to large, round ; color a rich shade of 

 red, rendering it a very handsome and attractive grape ; flesh tender, sweet, with a rich, aromatic flavor ; 

 ripens soon after the Delaware ; vine vigorous and productive. It sometimes fails to set a full crop. We 

 regard it as one of the best red grapes in our collection. 25c. 



Massasoit (Rogers' No. 3)— Bunch medium, rather loose as the fruit does not always set well ; berry medium, brown- 

 ish red ; flesh tender and sweet ; very good ; one of the best flavored of the Rogers'. Early as Hartford. A 

 desirable garden variety. 25c.

 medium to large, round, dark purple or purplish lilac, peculiar, with thin white bloom. Flesh very sweet, 

 vinous, rich and aromatic. Vine a remarkably vigorous grower ; wood short-jointed and hardy; foliage, large, 

 thick, healthy; has never been known to mildew in our grounds. It requires ample room and rather long prun- 

 ing. Ripe usually first week in September. The fruit always sets well, and it has never failed to ripen in the 

 worst of seasons since it first bore. 75e. 



Salem (Rogers' No. 53)— Bunch large, compact; berry large, round, coppery red; flesh tender, juicy; slight pulp? in 

 quality one of the best. Ripens with Concord. Vine healthy, vigorous and productive. One of the lost
