Notes: Label source: This sort is at once distinguished by its black or dark-blue coloured grains, which are large and coarsely shaped. It is prolific, and yields a considerable bulk of straw, but is later, by six or eight days, in ripening than the common vari, ety. It is likely that this variety may prove as hardy as the Winter Black. The Black colour which distinguishes these two sorts, and from which they derive their names, is confined to the chaff (paleae) or outer covering of the grain. on the removal of w, hich the grain appears white, and will yield as white flour as any of the other kinds.
