If you live in the south plant Spanish Black grapes. They make a good Cab or Merlot.

Man, I would eat them if I could then. Are they normal sized, or small (compared to regular grapes)?

In Atlanta here. Just surfing FR and came across this - is it too late to start an arbor in Atlanta? Somehow, this just hit my WANT list immediately.

My parents had a Concord Grape Arbor when us kids were growing up - great jellies & jams, excellent off the vine snacking too.
You’ll get a bunch of bees, especially in the fall if you don’t get the grapes all cut off. If you go Concord Grape, get ready to make a bunch of jams or give grapes away to friends.
(I used to call it the Grape Barber - that’s what I thought everyone was saying....:)

My great aunt in central OH had Concord grapes growing in an arbor just outside of her back door. They were 100 years old perhaps and grew very well. We made wine and grape jelly for many many years.
I would suggest Concord as it would be the best for your climate and the bonus is that it will provide a yearly crop of grapes in addition beautiful cover and cool shade for years to come.
They require little maintenance after they get established.

I really don’t know, but I don’t think it is too late. One site said spring is the best time, another said late fall. I’m really not sure. What sort of grapes are you looking at? Muscadines and/or scuppernongs?

Concords are seedless, right? Concords come in seedless and seeded varieties.

No, but when I was a kid my father sent me to the hardware store to buy some sky hooks.
