GRAPES!

The Red Flames are moving right along. I wasn't expecting any fruit this year. The vines were planted as bare root stock a few months ago. My studies of grapes led me to believe that no fruit would set until the 3rd season.
I suppose real life studies will be the biggest source of garden knowledge. If only I could start writing in a garden journal.

Sad about the birds.

This post actually made me go out and check out my grapes. We are doing Monukkah seedless and a Cabernet from Sonoma county in the garden. Last year's Concord wine from the wifes family's grapes was delish!
