Our Texas A&M Agrilife Viticulture Trial at Russell Farm is progressing wonderfully. We already have three plants with grapes (Muscadines), and the rest of the plants look strong and healthy. Thank you very much to our group of Johnson County Master Gardeners for all your hard work and dedication. OH, and thank you to the “Angel in the Vineyard” (Rosalyn’s 93 year old mother) for your hard work and sweet smile.
