I am in upstate NY zone 6a- orleans county is the niagara region on lake ontario

Double A was sold out but I am buying about 75 other vines form them... I am debating this option buying form a CA company with this clone I dont know... I just dont want to wait another year to start riesling

This is great info, thank you. So I guess the smart thing to do would be to look for an early ripening varietal that can survive in this zone and to insulate the vine. I'm not sure that it would be worth the work, but I am always looking for what is unique and beautiful :)

I am a bit fascinated by these unique, native grapes. I see that a couple of varieties are listed as zone 6 and was thinking about growing a row of 18 of them. I realize they are boarderline hardy for my area (Upstate NY zone 6a in silt loam). Has anyone had any experience with them? I...

I have been having a hard time finding Riesling available to plant this year in NY, but did find some clone 17 on 101-14 rootstock in CA. My question is would this cobination work ok in zone 61, orleans county NY? Any thoughts would be appreciated! See also my post about muscadines in my...

I found some riesling in California and in upstate NY (small roots) thanks for the help!

thanks so much for the lead. I only need 18 for now :) I will post where and when I find them. So if there is no post, I am still looking

Thanks, Sarmac! I will be contacting them Monday. You may have saved me a year wait!

thanks! looks like I will have to wait a year for Riesling but I will get some vidal blanc and Traminette in if anyone else knows where to find some Riesling, I'd really appreciate the advice!

Can anyone recommend a good place to buy Riesling Vines from? Double A just sold out and I was going to buy from them. Any good direction would be appreciated!

Attached is the companion planting, trellis and deer fencing plan I will be putting into action in April... I am in zone 6a. Do any of you more experienced members have any suggestions or thoughts about this plan for me? Thanks for your imput!

Thanks everyone! I am picking up over 100 8' trellis posts today and will get them in the ground as soon as weather permits. It is going to be an adventure establishing everything this year! JJ: I am in Orleans County, NY on Lake Ontario!

Hello Everyone! I just joined the forum a few minutes ago. Last year, I bought a zone 6a, 2.6 acre, Orleans County farm that was established in 1850 but left to disrepair for quite some time. I've spent the last year renovating the house and structures, as well as prepping the soil. This...
