#rogersred

Last Saturday morning, my husband, Jared, and I helped to cut back the vigorous Vitis californica ‘Roger’s Red’ grapevine on the community garden fence (more info on the grape, click here). The outside perimeter of the garden was planted with drought tolerant and native plantings a few years back. The grapevine became unruly (as shown in the top picture) and inhibited the view into the garden. Our job was to do a hard cut back to the main trunk, where we chose a few branches that will be trained to neatly run along the top and bottom of the fence. It felt good to be part of a local community project. I look forward to any upcoming Grapevine Committee events.
