I have four of the above trees (small) on order and on the off chance they do not come with planting instructions i was wondering if i should add anything to their hole (nutrients) or the surrounding soil while planting? Should i mulch when they are young? Thank you for the help.

Beautiful thank you

Thank you for the replies, i guess the one benefit i would have is that the area i am looking at is my front yard (no neighbors), and there is a patch of land (small) and i dont know what to call it, but a sort of trough for water to run through before you actually get to the street. So no one is going to complain or damage it, and i can sort of let it grow for a bit outside my property before maybe i would have to trim it back. Thank you again

I expect some maintenance I just don’t want to overly devote too much time to it. Thanks

I grew grapes for a short time and really liked hownthe grew. I’m looking to cover a fence and haven’t really liked my vine choices. I’d like to maybe grow grapes and sort of let them grow wild with minimal care. Thoughts? Will any grapes that grow be edible. Growing up I knew people who did this. I have about 60’ of fence to cover.  Every article I read says don’t do it and yet I had relatives while growing up that did and it worked. Any tips on how to do it with less maintenance? The main focus would be to cover the fence but I would like the grapes to be edible as well

I’m not actually looking to grow anything I mentioned grapes only because I do want to grow those but not necessarily in the location in question. I like how they grow and I know if left alone they will cover the fence no problem. The jasmine you mentioned is a possibility except they say it’s invasive I don’t want to worry about it on my trees. Thanks for the help

Im actually looking for plain Just green TBH, I'll do pretty inside the property. The Privacy and perimeter im interested in pretty much plain. TY for the response

I am interested in something to grow on my chain link fence. I have some trees on nearby and will plant a few more privacy trees, but because of the positioning will have an empty fence, and yet shrubs wouldnt fit well (vines seem the choice). I am interested in something green, not really with flowers. I do not want anything potentially poisonous to animals (or humans)... I am even considering just putting grapevines and let them grow out of control on their own (or possibly trim them if im ambitious). Im in SC zone 8, the location is full to partial sun. Any suggestions? I don't want anything with too much work, i simply want something green to grow quickly and cover the fence. We are talking about a 4-5' high fence about 60' long...

Thanks for the any input

Okay this go around I want to get some help. In the future i would like to grow several types of grapes. Id like to grow them in high raised beds with a trellis behind it.

1) How deep should the raised bed be?

2) If you have a one piece trellis going straight up (6ft above ground give or take), once the vines reach the top what do you do? Trim/Cut them? Wind them back down?

3) I plan on each type of grape (Red, Green, Black etc...) but not sure of the specific ones. What components should my soil have? Place Mulch / Wood Chips on top of the soil?

4) How far apart should each "Bed / Type of Grape" be?

5) Im probably not going to be able to plant in the fall as i hoped (is there a time too late to plant?) When should i plant (assuming bare roots)?

Thank you all for any and all assistance,

Thank you
