Hyde’s Eliza, (Canby’s August)
Bunch medium, compact; berry medium, round, black, juicy; rather pleasant, but unproductive, and of little value, where better varieties can be had.
Marion Port
Resembles the foregoing; may, perhaps, make a better wine, but cannot be recommended.
Poeschel’s Mammoth
Grown here, from seed of the Mammoth Catawba, by Mr. Michael Poeschel.
Bunch medium, compact, sometimes shouldered; berry very large, round, pale red, pulpy; rather deficient in flavor, but very large; free from disease. Ripens a week later than Catawba.
