Notes
'V-256' grape (Vitis 'V-256') is a vine for the food garden. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and average moisture. Its greenish flowers are fragrant and open from late spring to early summer. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. It can reach 12 to 15 feet tall and 8 to 10 feet wide, so give it a sturdy support.
Pairs well with Golden Delicious apple, Juneberry, Mountain mint, and Feather reed grass.
