TUALATIN VALLEY NURSERIES 
GRAPES 
Everyone should have a few grape vines in the home garden. They require very 
little cultivation. If proper selection of varieties is made, one may have grapes on 
the tables for several months in the year. They can be trained over fences, trellises, 
or doorways and thus be ornamental as well as useful. To grow for market, they can 
be planted' on hillsides that are unsuitable for other crops. They should in all cases 
have a free exposure to the sun and air.

ous, hardy vines with thick, healthy 
leaves; clusters very large, usually 
shouldered, compact and handsome; 
berries large, nearly round, black, rich, 
sweet, very good; skin thin; seeds few 
and small, parting easily from the pulp; 
a good shipper. Ripens very early, but

to grow.

berries are small with thin but firm skin; 
flesh juicy, very sweet and refreshing 
and of the best quality for both table 
use and for wine. Ripens with Concord 
or a little before; vine is hardy, produc¬ 
tive and a moderate grower. 
Niagara. Occupies the same position 
among the white varieties as Concord 
among the black. Bunch and berries 
large, greenish white, changing to pale 
yellow when fully ripe. Skin thin but 
tough, quality much like the Concord.

which it greatly resembles in appearance

oval, pale amber when ripe, covered with 
a thin, white bloom; flesh firm, brittle,
