[quote="mlacy"]what is the best kind of grape to grow. :?:

I am trying to grow "Champinell"[spl]. My problem; all shade and vine is slow to take off. :cry:

I'm not sure if the Native "Mustang" grape will do well in FW. :roll:

Some info here:

and:

I came across some Yahoo group for Texas grape growers too. This link may help: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/texasgrapes/

That's all the info. I have. Sorry I have never grown grapes myself. Sounds like a fun challenge though! :wink:
