I have decided to plant one grape vine here in North Alabama. If I am going to call my winery Jade Lake Vineyards, I need to have at least one vine outside my cellar! I really don't expect to produce an amount to make wine.
I am guessing I would do better with a muscadine variety but I am not opposed to growing something else that will grow here.
I was thinking I would sink two fence posts about 6 feet from each other and have a wire between them for a vine. I don't have a lot of space. The more I think about it, I may build a small grape arbor, Say 4x6 or 4x8. As usual with me, I see "project creep" coming up!
The area I can use gets morning sun through afternoon sun until about 4 or 5 pm.
I would appreciate your suggestions.
