MOORE'S EARLY. {Black.) August. 
Raised from seed by John B. Moore, Concord, Mass, in 1872. Bunch large ; berry round 
(as large as the Wilder or Rogers’ No. 4); color black, with a heavy blue bloom ; quality bet- 
ter than the Concord ; vine exceedingly hardy ; has never been covered in winter, and has 
been exposed to a temperature of more than twenty degrees below zero, without injury, and it 
has been entirely exempt from mildew or disease. Its earliness makes it desirable for an early 
crop, and more particularly adapts it to New England and the northern portion of the United 
States, maturing as it does ten days before the Hartford, and twenty before the Concord. 
Regular price $1.00 
NIAGARA. (White.) August , 
1 ‘This new white grape originated in Lockport, N. Y., in 1868, and is a cross between the 
Concord and Cassady ; first fruiting in 1872 ; it has since regularly borne large crops of fine 
fruit. The vine is a remarkably strong grower and very hardy ; the leaves are thick and 
leathery and dark glossy green ; bunches very large and uniform and very compact; berries 
large or larger than Concord and skin thin but tough, which insures their shipping qualities ; 
quality good, very little pulp, melting and sweet to the center ; ripens before Concord.” All 
things considered, it is the most yaluable white grape in cultivation. Regular price 75c. 
BRIGHTON. (Purple.) September. 
Our experience with the vine and fruit of the Brighton has convinced us more and more 
thoroughly of its superiority as a family grape. Its remarkable vigor and hardiness of vine, 
large compact bunches, rich wine shade of the ripened berry, delicate skin, tender, almost 
seedless pulp, sugary juice and rich flavor, are combined qualities that are not united to such a 
degree in any other sort with which we are acquainted. It ripens a week to ten days before the 
Delaware and bears most abundantly ; having thick, large foliage, it is enabled to withstand 
the heat of the Summer, and being a vigorous grower, it exhibits extreme hardiness, and is 
enabled to endure the Winter in extreme localities. We commend this sort especially as a 
standard variety for the vineyard or garden. Regular price 75c. 
CONCORD. (Black.) September. 
A large, handsome grape, ripening a week or two earlier than Isabella ; very hardy and pro- 
ductive. Succeeds over a great extent of country, and although not of the highest quality, is 
one of the most popular market grapes. Regular price 25c. 
POCKLINGTON. (Golden.) September. 
Is a seedling from Concord. Originated and raised from seed by John Pocklington, Wash- 
ington County, N. Y., an elevated, cold, late locality. The vine thoroughly hardy, both in 
wood and foliage. Strong grower ; never mildews in vine or foliage. Called a white grape, 
but the fruit is a light golden yellow, clear, juicy and sweet to the center, with little or no 
pulp ; bunches very large, sometimes shouldered; berries round and very large and thickly set; 
quality, when fully ripe, much superior to Concord. It will prove the grape for the million, 
both for market and for home use ; ripens with the Concord. Regular price 75c. 
WORDEN. (Black.) September. 
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. Regular price 75c.
