  5. Hi LD, HKatz & Tony

    LD: Thanks!

    HKatz: Yes, we love the grapes a lot!

    Tony: These are a hardy variety of Concord grape--I believe the variety is called "Reliant." Our own winters are very unpredictable & variable, & can be quite harsh. But we've had them for several years & they seem to like it here.

  6. We used to grow Concords on an arbor in our backyard in MD when I was a kid. We ate them straight, too. Mmmmmm! Thanks for the memories!

  7. They look grand grapes. the last time I saw grapes as delicious looking as these was in the gardens of Brodsworth Hall which, Tony Zimnoch please take note, is in Yorkshire.
