HENDERSON’S 
SELECTION OF 
GARDEN FRUITS 
FOR SPRING 
PLANTING 
New Hardy Red Grape. 
Caco or Catawba-Concord. A cross between the old 
favorite Catawba and the well-known Concord. It ripens a 
little in advance of the Concord. This variety fully equals 
the Concord in strength and rapidity of growth and is very 
hardy. The color is a rich, sparkling wine-red, with abund¬ 
ant bloom. Bunch large; berry medium to large and almost 
round. The crowning merit, however, is its quality, sur¬ 
passing in tenderness of pulp, luscious flavor and aroma the 
Catawba, while it is as prolific as the Concord. ( See cut.) 
Price, 2 year vines, 75c. each; $7.50 per doz. 
HARDY BLACK GRAPE. 
Campbell’s Early. E. Some points of special merit in Campbell’s 
Early are a very strong, vigorous, hardy vine, with thick, heavy, mildew- 
resisting foliage, and bearing abundant clusters; very large, compact and 
handsome. Berries large, often an inch or more in diameter; black, with 
light purple bloom; skin thin, but very tenacious; flesh firm but tender, 
parting easily from its few and small seeds. Flavor rich, sweet, slightly, 
vinous, free from foxiness. Its season is very early, and its keeping 
qualities remarkable; having hung upon the vines sound and perfect for 
six weeks or more after ripening, with no tendency to fall off or shell from 
stem. Price, 2-year vines, 30c. each, $3.00 per doz. 
HARDY WHITE GRAPE. 
Green Mountain. E.E. ( Winchell .) This, the earliest white grape, 
has been thoroughly tested over a wide area, and has proved most satis¬ 
factory. It combines hardiness, fruitfulness, vigor, good size and excel¬ 
lent quality. Bunch medium to large, shouldered; berries medium, 
greenish-white; skin thin, tough, pulp tender, sweet, with few seeds; the 
flavor is excellent. Price, 2-year vines, 50c. each, $5.00 per doz.
