This is a tree, very much branched, of moderate height. 
There are several plants of it in the Botanic Garden at Bath, 
and in its vicinity. It deserves to be more generally cultivated

and having a great deal of the taste of the grape, accompanied 
with a peculiar flavour, being very grateful to the palate.
