Notes

'Marquis' grape (Vitis 'Marquis') 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. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits. Its green flowers are fragrant and open in late spring and early summer. It can climb 15 to 20 feet tall and wide, so give it a sturdy support.

Pairs well with Apricot, Passionflower, and Feather reed grass.
