28. BLACK MUSCADINE. 
The berries and bujiches of this fpecies are both fomewhat 
fmaller than the preceding. This is a very prolific grape, and 
makes a fine appearance, on account of the black berries being 
powdered with a bluifh bloom ; but the flefh is not fo deli- 
cate and juicy as the former. I procured a plant of this grape 
from Holland by the name of Frankendale.*"\ 
29. ROYAL MUSCADINE, OR D'arboycc. 
This has a round white berry, of a moderate fize, a thin 
ikin, and a juicy foft flelh. The bunches are generally exceeding 
large, fometimes arriving to fix or feven pounds. This fpecies 
is very diftinguifhable by the wood and foliage, generally 
growing remarkably grofs and fi;rong.*-|' 
30. MALMSEY MUSCADINE. 
This feems nearly allied to the preceding, but the bunches 
and berries are foqaewhat fmaller, and the juice of a higher fla- 
vour, being remarkably fweet. However, as I have only feen 
the fruit of this fort from a plant growing in a pot, an allow- 
ance for the fize of the bunches fliould be made.'^-j'* 
31. CLARET GRAPE. 
The berries of this fpecies are fmall, black, and inclining to 
an oval figure; they grow clofe, and form fmall bunches. 
The juice is of a blood-red colour, of a harfli tafle, excepting.
