When it kept on snowing and snowing and snowing well beyond normal, I commented to my husband that when it would finally melt that the grapes should benefit from the slow melting and deep root watering.
I guess I was right ~ the grapes are coming along nicely!
And those wonderful little pollinators showed up right on schedule. I've noticed that we have a lot of bees this year, and several different types. Buzz on little guys, buzz on!
And being that I'm into 'companion gardening' you know - planting things that enhance each other - I discovered that chives do well with grapes! They're supposed to help each other in one way or another. Don't ask how or why, I just follow a guide I found on the internet. And if it's on the internet it can't be wrong - can it?
Look out arbor, we're about to cover you! And check out those teensy-weensy clusters of grapes!

oh, good for you! and that you have bees, too!
I am so glad you are having luck with grapes. I have never had any and I have tried at least 20 times.
Sherry did find some Muscadines behind the house once. They are still there, but the grapes, nada.
((HUGS))
I see grape jam in the future :)
I see grape wine in the future!
and juice. Your grapes are very healthy. It must be those lil bees. We have a lot of bees again finally, too. Love to see our pollinators. Can't wait to hug your neck next week.
