GREEN MOUNTAIN WHITE GRAPE. 
We quote the following description from the introducers :— 
“ It stands at the head of the list for quality, earliness, good bearing, and vigorous, healthy 
growth. The vine is a young and very profuse bearer, the blossom is perfect , and the bunches 
are of good size, handsomely formed, and heavily shouldered. The berries of medium size; 
color, greenish white ; skin, thin, and leaving no unpleasantness whatever in the mouth when 
eaten ; pulp, tender and sweet, with a slight inclination toward the vinous. The seeds, which 
are only one or two to a grape, separate from the tender pulp with the slightest pressure after 
leaving the skin. It is entirely free from foxiness, and resembles a hot-house grape more nearly 
than any out-door grape we have ever seen. 
green mountain white grape. Cut two-thirds of natural size. 
“The vine's vigorous, healthy growth, with its large leaves and abundance of handsome 
bunches of fruit, elicit the admiration and delight of all who see it and taste of its fruit. 
‘Splendid!’ ‘Good!’ ‘Lovely!’ ‘Delicious!’ are some of the words of exclamation we are 
sure to hear from those tasting the grape. 
“It is now eight/years since we planted the first vines of the Green Mountain grape, and 
the longer we test it the more we are impressed with its great value as an early grape of deli¬ 
cious quality. For healthy, vigorous growth, earliness, quality of fruit, and profuseness in 
bearing, it is, without exception, far ahead of any variety yet introduced.”
