That's a pretty amazing catch for just the work of taking them out (you'd have to be putting them in even if you bought them). I have tried grapes here, but have had no success. The best I have achieved is to get stems of flowers on the plants. After a week or so, the whole stems of flowers fall off. I have also had problems with plants not surviving the winter. Last spring, I had one plant that was going great guns putting out leaves and flowers, but after a hail storm, it withered up and died. Frustrating.
