Common name:Fox Grape, Northern Fox grape
Botanical name:Vitis labrusca
Vitis labrusca is a deciduous vine used for fruit, wine and shade. A single grapevine produces enough new growth every year to roof an arbor, arch a walkway, or shade over a terrace or deck. This vine needs full sun, medium water and good drainage. It can remain productive for 50 years or longer. The vines should only be pruned in the winter. The vines can grow 10'-20' long.

Practice grass-cycling by leaving short grass clippings on lawns after mowing, so that nutrients and organic matter are returned to the soil.
Remove irrigation water and fertilizer from areas where you don't want weeds to grow.
