swenson red grape for North Carolina
Comments (9)Kiwinut, I have noticed Swenson Red can get downy, but it is more resistant than the vinafera grapes and is not much worse than other hybrids. Overall it has been an easy grower. It didn't fool my birds in spite of the light color - they got most of my crop last year. I'm bagging all my grapes in paper sacks this year when they start to ripen, I had too many losses last year. I don't know exactly what ones I am going to toss (well, topwork) this spring but its looking like Beta (got for its disease-resistance, but its too sour for anything but jam), Worden (like Concord; already eaten plenty of those in my life), Steuben (good and highly disease-resistant but not good enough), one of my two NY Muscats (super slipskin aspect makes it a jam grape only in my mind), Edelweiss (great vigorous disease-resistant grower but too much like Concord in flavor for me), Interlaken (I prefer Canadice in spades over this seedless grape which is more in the slipskin Edelweiss camp), Sangiovese (wine grape I have only one vine of which is not supposed to be very consistent in my climate), Syrah (ditto), Chambourcin (wine grape not tannic enough for me but otherwise very good). As you can see I am starting to realize the slipskin grapes are not something I am personally going to be able to use a lot of. They are great for jam but I expect I will just keep a NY Muscat for jam since they have the most flavor. My kids have zero interest in eating any slipskin grape fresh.

Comments (4)Grass Root Gardens near lake Junaluska (west of Asheville): 1368 Dellwood Rd, Waynesville, NC 28786 The owners are friendly - we drove up from Atlanta to get a few Gold Rush Dawn Redwoods (...we went by Mr. Maple as well on the same trip). There was also another nursery in the area that has more hostas - but I can't recall the name....See MoreAntiquing in North and South Carolina (GW NC/SC friends) UPDATE!
Comments (9)Thank you ladies. I edited my post because we actually head out of NC into SC at or near a little town called Landrum (which did btw have some good antique shops last time we were there). @DLM2000-GW I love real antiques and I love to dig for a treasure but I am not crazy about junk stores. Nice consignment stores would be good too. I see people who find great things at Good Will, etc. but not here near me. My husband and I love to antique and we have been a few times as the pandemic has died down. One good thing is if we go on a week day - there are very few others shopping, so we have felt safe. I know there is the big store still in Asheville, down near the river (I believe it flooded once) and I have found a few things there but that place is HUGE and I get overwhelmed and tired! I'm sure we will find at least a place or two, and we will enjoy the outdoors too and just getting away for a few days! I don't know if any of you are close to Black Mt., but there used to be an antique store there, with quite a bit of items outside. They had a PET ROOSTER, it was kind of their mascot. I am thinking that place has closed though. If you think of any stores let me know! My sis and I and our husbands will visit here or there a couple of times a year I'm sure, but we were trying to come up with some places in between where we could meet up for a couple of days. They enjoy antiques too. I do google before hand when I know what cities we will be in. I'll take a look before we go to see what's left in the area. Thanks....See Morerhizo_1 (North AL) zone 7
