  • Description

  • Notes

Grapes are a wonderful addition to a garden, even without the fabulous fruit. Grapes are fast growing, and given a proper structure to scramble on, will provide screening and shade. Many species are available that grow along the Wasatch Front, even wine varieties. A very woody, twining, tendrilling vine, they need substantial support. Fruit generally begins to ripen late summer to early fall, depending on the variety. Young leaves can be pickled. Some have lovely fall color. Grows 15 to 25 feet tall and wide.
