Vernacular NameFrost grape
Remarks[#148-3] ["Sept. 6. At Brattleboro. . .A.M. - Walked down the railroad a mile, returning partly by river-bank. . . I find small grapes a third of an inch in diameter, many ripe, on the bank of the Connecticut, - pleasantly acid. Clusters three to four or five inches long. The leaves are sharply toothed and green on both sides. Is it the Vitis cordifolia?1 I see also a vine with equally small now green grapes, apparently like ours. Is not this V. aestivalis? Of the latter the berries are said to be pleasant, and ripe in October.2 1 Apparently it is, but berries already rip. 2 Vide Oct. 27, 1856" Journal 9: 64. 1856]
