Buy the Vine at once, and grow it till the wood gets sufficiently mature to admit of its being inarched. We struck a Vine of the variety you name this time twelve months, and in July inarched it on the old wood of a Vine on which the fruit was ripe at the time, and at this date we have eleven bunches of fruit set, and ready for thinning. We put the inarch on about a yard from the ground, and cut back the old Vine to within 2 feet of the point of union with the new in August, and in December we pruned it close off at the junction. Never think of removing a good free-growing Vine to plant a different variety; inarch, by all means. The sort you name has never yet been exhibited so as to do its merits justice.
