'Catawba' Red Grape
Catawba grape is the leading grape for American wine, juice, jellies, jams and fresh eating. It has large clusters of medium to large sized, copper-red grapes with a sweet flavor. It was the most widely planted grape variety in the country during the mid 1800's. It ripens after the Concord, in late Sept.-Oct.
Grapes should be pruned back extensively while dormant. Grapes are self pollinating but will do better with another one nearby. Disease-resistant. Ripens in September.
There’s nothing quite like homegrown grapes on a warm summer day. Their sweetness and burst of flavor are unmatched! Grape vines are an attractive addition to any garden and can be trained to grow up arbors and around fences where they can create a living barrier or enclosed space.
