Its strong, hardy vigorous growth ; thick, heavy,healthy foliage; very early ripening and abundant bearingof large and handsome clusters of most excellent quality,combined with remarkable keeping and shipping properties,form a combination equaled by noother grape. Cluster large,shouldered, moderately compact; berry large, nearly round,black svith profuse bloom, skin thin but very tenacious, fleshvery tender and juicy, flavor sweet, rich, aromatic, with deli-cate aroma ; seeds small and part readily from the flesh, soeasily indeed that persons need never swallow them. Itsseason is early—ripening with Moores Early, but remains onthe vine a long time. The vines are uncommonly hardy,having endured eighteen degrees below zero without any pro-tection and were not injured in the least. There is everyindication that it will prove to be the best black grape atpresent
