New Grape==Catawba=Concord 
This is an Karly Grape and without exception the best early variety we have ever known. 
A cross between Catawba and Concord, scientifically made, and possesses the merits of both va¬ 
rieties with the defects of neither. 
Fifty years ago the Catawba was universally popular; it is still the standard of excellence, 
in quality, among hardy grapes; but having become enfeebled with the infirmities of old age. it 
can no longer be grown successfully, except in favored locations, by reason of its foliage being 
subject to downy mildew, and the fruit to black-rot. It also ripens quite late-too late for most 
regions. Concord, as is well known, is unexcelled in productiveness, vigor, hardiness of vine, 
and freedom from disease of foliage. The good properties of Catawba-Concord arc: 
High quality—equalling in tenderness of pulp.sweet luscious flavor and aroma the Catawba, 
with added sweetness and juiciness. Rich sparkling light red.with abundant bloom. Bunch large 
and compact-just like the Catawba. Berry medium to large and nearly round-exactly like 
the Concord. Season early; a little in advance of Concord. Skin thin and tough; much like Ca¬ 
tawba but thinner. Berry adheres firmly to bunteh, hence a superior shipper and keeper. Exempt 
from both black-rot and brown-rot; and all otlier diseases. Vine of extreme vigor— a stronger 
grower than the Concord, and of ironclad hardihood. A heavy annual yielder—as prolific as 
Concord. Foliage similar to Concord and of like freedom from mildew. Entirely without foxi¬ 
ness in odor or flavor. This Grape has been given ten years of the severest kind of.test—never 
petted— and "has not been found wanting” in any way. There is nothing like it on the market 
today. Stock is limited and high priced. Best of all Early Grapes. You will have a prize if you 
grow it.
