CATAWBA GRAPE 1gal

If you are looking to bring a taste of the vineyard to your own backyard, Catawba Grape is the classic American variety that delivers both beauty and a bountiful harvest. This vigorous deciduous vine can easily reach 15 to 20 feet if given a sturdy trellis or fence to climb, making it a fantastic choice for creating a shaded, edible arbor. To ensure those large clusters of sweet, copper-red grapes develop their full flavor and signature musky aroma, you will want to plant it in a spot that receives at least 8 hours of full sun. While it is incredibly hardy and adaptable to various soil types, the real magic is in its rugged nature; the woody vines and coarse foliage are remarkably resistant to deer once established, though you may want to protect the young shoots. It is a productive, long-lived investment that rewards a little seasonal pruning with gallons of juice, jelly, or homegrown wine.
