Cyclopedia of American horticulture, comprising suggestions for cultivation of horticultural plants, descriptions of the species of fruits, vegetables, flowers, and ornamental plants sold in the United States and Canada, together with geographical and biographical sketches cyclopediaofamer04bail4 Year: 1900 1952 VITIS VITIS species (possibly with V. Arizoniea or V. Doaniana), but it is now so widely distributed and grows so far removed from its supposed parents and occurs in such great quantity in certain areas, that for tax- onomic purposes it must be kept distinct. It is not unlikely that it has origi- nated at differeut places as the product of unlike hybridizations. Late French writers designate the jagged leaved forms as V. Solonis, and the den- tate forms as V. Nuevo- Mexicana, This interest- ing Grape was found some thirty years ago by Engel- mann in the Botanic Gar- den of Berlin under the name of Fitis Soloiiii, without history. Engel- mann guesses (Bushberg Cat. ed. 3, 18) the name to be a corruption of 'Long's.' It is probable that the plant was sent to European gardens as Vifis Longii — Yery likely from Prince's nursery —and the name was misread on the label.
