Our winters are usually fairly mild; of course, I grew up in central Canada, so comparatively speaking, almost anything is "milder" LOL As a rule, we don't get a lot of snow, and it's unusual for what we do get to last more than a day or two. At our altitude (5000 ft) the sun is so strong that it melts off pretty quickly, particularly on the south side, which is where our grape is. We don't get a lot of days below freezing either. But, it does vary wildly! It'll be 30 degrees one day and 65 or more the next. All that being said, we're in the foothills, so you just never know...it literally changes in 15 minutes. Still, the plant's growing gangbusters, so I reckon it can handle our "usual" weather. I'm thinking January might be a good time for pruning here. Most of the really cold weather has usually passed by then but the growing season won't have started.
Here's another question (you've been so very helpful!) Do you think I could put in another one now, or should I wait till spring? That's assuming the nursery has any left, of course. I'm thinking if we put 2 or 3 in that corner, we can have our shade and eat our grapes too Thanks to you, I can start the new ones properly, LOL
