Going strong

This is 4 months later, and it even produced some grapes, tho not much because I had cut all the fruiting branches in order to train it down the line.. down towards the left in the black pot is the dwarf mulberry tree I purchased around the same, which also produce fruit 2 months after I received it, tho again not much because the tree wasn't large enough. In all, I'm happy with my purchase.

Alachua Muscadine Grape, Carlos, Plant From Florida?

Love them, they are basking in the sun as I write this on a barrier Island north of Daytona. I weave them through my fence trillis...They go well with my Coconut Cream Mango, Hass Avacado, Papaya and Olive trees....
