I grew up eating Concord seeded fresh. The taste is wonderfullllllllllll!!!!!!!!!!

They go great with my Mallika, Glenn, Pickering, Xoai Cat Hoa Loc, Nam Doc Mai, Sweet Tart and Cogshall mangos.
Relative to being killed off by Pierces disease, will that also occur in NWFL? I always assume you could not grow bunch grapes in my region. So maybe constant replanting would be a solution for us up here?
