About 30 minutes after my wife got home, Tropical Wet Blanket Claudette declared it Happy Hour, opened up another monsoon burst, and took down a 10 foot tall trellis of Texas muscadines in my front yard. Damn her!!!!! LOL

I'll need the truck to pull that sucker upright again. And probably about 20 linear feet of rebar to hold it there.

We have an overabundance of muscadines this year. I’ll send you some.

But the grapes weren’t uprooted?

Even if they were, just put ‘em back, pack’em in and prune ‘em like you were trying to kill them in a month or so.

In many fruiting perennial plants, root shock instigates accelerated growth and flowering the next year. Grapes are probably the most forgiving and regenerative plant we have.
