Dormant cutting without roots. Will require rooting.


Mericadel is an American hybrid grape. Per Munson's notes in 1893: "Vine very vigorous and very productive; cluster large, berry medium, purple, translucent, very persistent to cluster, skin thin, and tough; pulp lender and meaty, of very best quality: fine for table and market. Ripens late, just after Concord. Doing finely in Florida and Southeastern part of the United States. Pronounced the best quality by many who have taken part in our 'grape-testing parties.' Plant 8 feet apart, medium arms in pruning. Perfect flower."

 

Mad Cat Farm maintains a collection of T.V. Munson grape varieties, which we believe are important for modern organic and "no-spray" growers wanting to produce backyard grapes without chemicals. Munson grapes were bred with the humid temperate regions of the United States in mind, namely the South and Midwest, which typically cannot grow grapes well.

 

Thomas Volney Munson was a vitivculturalist, horticulturist and breeder of grapes in Texas in the late 1800s who developed some 300 varieties of grapes. Many of these varieties are no longer in existence or are no longer available to the public. 

 

Cuttings are 8-10" long with 2-3 nodes per cutting.
