NEW HARDY 

 RED GRAPE 



CACO OR CATAWBA- 

 CONCORD 



A cross between the old favorite Catawba and 

 the well-known Concord. It ripens a little in

 fully equals the Concord in strength and 

 rapidity of growth and is very hardy. The 

 color is a rich, sparkling wine-red, with abun- 

 dant bloom. Bunch large; berry medium to 

 large and almost round. The crowning merit, 

 however, is its quality, surpassing in tenderness 

 of pulp, luscious flavor and aroma the Catawba, 

 \'^S while it is as prolific as the Concord. Price, 2-year 



\ vines, §1.00 each; $10.00 per doz.
