No. 64. MuscADE — black. See 59. 



— 65, Verdet — white. See 59. This variety was 



also called Grose Guillaume^ by the gardeners at 

 the Luxemburg. 



— 66. FoLLE Blanche — de la Charente — This is 



the variety of vine which yields the brandies of 

 Cognac. There are three varieties called FoUe, 

 the white, the yellow, and the green ; the two 

 former are superior to the third. 



The following were rooted plants from tlio nursery of Messrs. 

 Audibert Freres, of Tonelle, near Tarascon, in the Depart* 

 ment of Bouches du Rhone. 



— 67. Raisin Monstreux, of Decandolle. Qualities 



not known. 



— 68. Mounestin — round, black. Fine bunches, yields 



well, is good both for eating and for wine. 



— 69. Muscat Violet. A good eating grape, and 



also for Muscat wine. 



— 70. Raisin de Dames — white. A most delicious 



eating grape, and keeps well for winter provision. 



— 71. Isabelle, an American grape, black, with a 



flavour of the raspberry. 



— 72. Muscat noir — black. Good for eating, and 



for wine. 



— 73. Vine of Upper Egypt. A very deep coloured 



grape, yielding a very dark purple juice. 



— 74. CoRNiCHON. This variety was one of four, pro- 



cured in the Garden of Montpelier, but not be- 

 longing to the Luxembourg collection, the other 

 three are dead. This, I think, is a very curious 

 and beautifully variegated grape.
