Grape - Niagara - Sale Price: $44.95 The Niagara Grape (White), Vitis labrusca 'Niagara' , is a seedless grape that is commonly used for wines, champagnes, jams/jellies and juice. The Niagara grape was introduced in 1868. The Niagara Grape has a very sweet taste that makes it perfect to serve fresh on the table. Niagara grapes are the leading green grape grown in the United States. Most American consumers recognize the Niagara as the source of most white grape juice.  The Niagara grapes are very cold hardy, thriving in USDA Plant Hardiness Zones 5 to 8, and will produce vigorously for 20 years or more. The best planting area for grape vines is where they receive full sun with good air circulation. It is best to provide young plants with some wind protection. Train them on trellis, pergolas, or around patios. Grape vines require a deep soil that drains well.  Keeping a pH level of 5.5 to 7.0 is ideal. Excessively wet or dry soils should be avoided. Work the soil to remove weeds and add humus such as peat moss, compost, or aged manure to improve soil quality.

Strawberry - Tristar - Sale Price: $42.75 The Tristar Strawberry, Fragaria x ananassa 'Tristar', is an everbearing strawberry that is sweet and aromatic. The deep red colored skin covers a firm fruit.  The fruit is glossy and has solid interiors. Tristar resists red stele, Verticillium wilt, powdery mildew and leaf scorch. The fall crop will be the heaviest. This is a great strawberry! One of the most important aspects of a healthy strawberry patch is location -- a minimum of six hours of sunlight a day. Although you can get a harvestable crop with as little as six hours of direct sunlight per day, the largest harvests and best quality berries come from those plants that get the advantage of full sun. They are perennial, winter hardy, and will thrive in full sunshine, as long as the soil is fertile and well drained. Healthy plants will produce an abundance of berries for three to four years, after which they should be replaced. Your strawberry bed should have good drainage and be well tilled with rich organic matter such as manure or compost to give your strawberry plants a good start, with amendments again in the spring. Keep your plants well watered until they are established (but don't overdo) and up to fruiting time. Strawberries can also be planted in tubs, containers and hanging baskets. In addition to being low in fat and calories, strawberries are naturally high in fiber, vitamin C, folate, potassium and antioxidants, making them a sweet choice that advances heart health, reduces the risk of certain types of cancer, and gives a boost to total body (and mind) wellness. NOTE: When making a strawberry bed in an established garden, be sure to locate it away from any spot where you have grown peppers, tomatoes, eggplant or potatoes. These plants can harbor verticillium wilt, which is devastating to strawberries.

Strawberry - Tribute - Sale Price: $42.75 The Strawberry Tribute, Fragaria x ananassa 'Tribute', a spring planted herbacious root, is an Ever Bearing strawberry that produces one crop in spring and another in fall. The Tribute's medium to large, firm fruit has made it the most popular of the eastern day-neutral varieties. It is used for commercial plantings and garden planting. During the first year, Tribute will peak in September and the next year will bring forth a heavy spring crop. Tribute is resistant to both red stele and verticillium wilt.

Raspberry - Royalty - Sale Price: $42.75 The Royalty Raspberry, 'Rubus 'Royalty', is cross between a purple and a red raspberry. It has a large fruit size and plant vigor of a purple hybrid with the high quality of a red. Excellent for jam or jelly, and if it is picked at the red stage it has the sweet light flavor of red raspberries. The Royalty ripens mid-July. Royalty is hardy, has wide adaptation, and has good yield potential. This new cultivar has great insect resistance and is among the largest fruited raspberries. The berries are versatile and can be used as fresh fruit, in preserves, or in pies and pastries. Raspberries may be grown successfully at an elevation as high as 7,000 feet. They do best in full sun on non-alkaline, fertile loam soil. However, they may be grown in partial shade or under other environmental constraints. Natural protection against strong winter winds are provided in some valleys, but in other areas it is necessary to provide artificial protection during winter months. Although a well-drained soil is essential for success, a sandy soil will need to have plenty of organic matter incorporated in preparation. Raspberries need a plentiful supply of moisture throughout the growing season. Raspberries take little space and live for years. Birds also love the fruit, so you may have to share the harvest.

Grape - Reliance Seedless - Sale Price: $49.95 The Reliance Grape, 'Vitis 'Reliance', is a red medium-sized, seedless table grape with high dessert quality. It is well suited for fresh eating, or can be used for juice. Reliance requires annual pruning, adequate fertilization and maximum sunlight, and it ripens early September.  Reliance grapes have a wide array of colors which they pass through before becoming a beautiful purple color, at which they are ready to eat.

Reliance has one of the better vines, and it is easy to train to cordons with spurs. This grape is one of the best tasting, red seedless table grape. Grapes are primarily grown for fruit production in home fruit gardens where they provide good ornamental value: bold summer foliage, showy fruit, some fall color and shaggy, twisted trunking and branching often best seen in winter. Grapes need a good support system like fences, walls, trellises, arbors or other structures. The grape vines can be quite attractive year-round and can provide good cover, screening, or shade to areas around the home. Grapes need full sunlight and high temperatures to ripen, so plant on southern slopes, the south side of windbreaks, or the south sides of buildings. Considered to be a good grape for juices and jellies. Birds love grapes, so be sure to plant some to share.
