Foch
Muller Thurgau
Gewurztraminer

| Tell me about grape cuttings. Can I take hardwood cuttings in the fall, stick them in the ground and expect them to root in the spring? The reason I ask is that I have a vine of Virginia Creeper which is in the grape family, and I want to propagate it. Regards, Jim Eichner |

| Grape cuttings should wait until the leaves begin to fall off in november. a cutting of about 10-12 inches with 3-5 buds is pretty standard. Rooting hormone may help but isn't usually required. |

Well, pruning season is getting close. Would like to trade grape cuttings of known varieties.
I know there are a lot of ? grapes out there but I want to know what I am getting and putting in my garden.
will have a lot to share of named varieties grown locally. |

| Jim, is it possible to layer a few pieces of your vine? If you could do that now, you may have rooted pieces by late spring. |

| Yes that works well especially for hard to root species, "layering shoots while attached to main vine," but i am looking for some stuff I don't already have here. |
