Spray, spray, and pray |

I've come back to it after years. The expert who sent me my first cuttings also sent me several cuttings of more tolerant grapes for free. His name was Lon Ronbough. He wrote "These will almost certainly die unless you're willing to constantly baby them and spray them constantly with fungicide. They are very prone to fungus. The other grapes will live, so you'll have something." He was right, but for the intrepid, the tiny grapes shine like tiny jewels. It may be the curse of this grape that everyone who sees them wants to grow them. Only the committed need bother. These are grapes in need of life support. The first time around, I made what I thought was a heroic try. Forget it. Thank you for the more agreeable ones. That said, I refuse to give up on growing them. Too beautiful, too alluring, the siren of the vineyard.
