The possum grapes are preparing for another year’s crop. The flowers are out and ready to make baby grapes. Let’s hope the pollinators return with a week of dry weather.

These are way ahead of ours. Your photo just sent me to the window to look in vain for signs of life on the grapevine.
Well, they were a bit precocious when the post was made back in 2011. Today, our vines barely have a bud on them. The cold has slowed down nearly all our fruit plants (not a bad thing considering that April 4 is historically the last frost day for our area), so we hope for no late frosts or freezes to dampen the potential for bearing fruit.
