FREE: (5) five Muscadine Grape Vines!

The listing, (5) five Muscadine Grape Vines! has ended.

This auction is for 5 starter grape vine plants, with roots. The plants will be about 12 inches in length. Plant Muscadine vines in early spring when there is no longer a danger of frost. Insert each plant into a hole that's large enough to accommodate its entire root system, and plant your vines 10 to 20 feet apart. Water immediately after planting and then during dry periods as they establish their roots.
Allow the sturdiest vine of the plant to grow upward toward the top of the trellis, and cut off any new shoots that grow from the plant. Once it reaches the top of the trellis, cut its tip off so that it may produce new shoots. The new shoots from the tip will become the cordons or "arms" of the plant that you can train downward to eventually spread outward from the center
Fertilize the plant in April and again in August during the first year of growth, one foot away from the vine use fertilizer in March and again in July
Prune the plant with hedge trimmers during its dormant season. Your vines will produce more fruit the following year if you cut each stem back to have only two or three buds
