SPRING CATALOGUE OF SEEDS, BULBS AND PLANTS FOR 1901 
147 
FiVe Grapes. 
These are all of quite recent introduction and are superb 
in every sense of the word. Among them are black, white 
and red varieties. 
Early Ohio —This is the earliest of all G-rapes; originated at 
Euclid, Ohio, in 1862, being a chance seedling of the Con¬ 
cord. The third year from seed it set thirty clusters of 
fruit, which were allowed to grow; they ripened August 
20th. It has borne large crops every year since, ripening 
in 1889 the 15th of August, and always as early as the 20th 
of that month, fully one week to ten days earlier than 
Moore’s Early. It is fully three times as productive as 
Moore’s Early, better in quality, and never drops from 
the stem, a fact that shippers will fully appreciate. On 
account of its earlhiess the fruit is readily sold in the 
market at 10 to 15 cents per pound at wholesale. Testi¬ 
monials received from all parts of the country corrobo¬ 
rate the foregoing in every detail. The introduction of 
this variety makes it possible to grow Grapes in any 
locality where heretofore it has been impossible to ripen 
them on account of frost. 
Moore’s Diamond— This is probably the finest of all white 
Grapes. The vine is hardy and healthy in growth, vigor¬ 
ous, and perfectly free from mildew. Berries large, of a 
beautiful light straw color—almost white—and of a most 
delicious quality, having few seeds and a pulp which 
melts in one’s mouth like snow. 
Moyer— An extra early Grape, about the size snd color of 
the old Delaware, but with a larger bunch. It is, per¬ 
haps, sweeter and more delicious than any other Grape 
grown; in this respect being superior to the Delaware. 
It has beautiful red berries, which are very handsome, 
and the vine is a hardy, robust grower vigorous and pro¬ 
ductive. Originated in Canada. 
Niagara— No Grape has been so largely advertised as this, 
and none so extensively planted during the first few 
vears, and, we may say, none has proved more profitable. 
It is the leading white Grape of the day. Berries very 
large, borne in large bunches. Flavor sweet and deli¬ 
cious, there being but few varieties which can equal it. 
It is exceedingly productive, and as hardy and robust in 
any locality as the Concord. 
©olden Pockllngton— Avery sweet and delicious Grape of 
a beautiful amber color. Hardy, vigorous and produc¬ 
tive. A magnificent sort. 
Price, 15c. each; $1.25 per dozen. 1 each of the 5 sorts for 60c. 
3 each for $1.50.
