A rose by any other name

First bunch of sweet little green grapes harvested today.

I’ve been waiting for this bunch to turn black because I thought I had planted a black seedless variety, as per the tag.

That’s what you get for buying plants from a big box store that sees plants only as merchandise and not living beings with personality and character.

I will never know, now, what variety of grape (vitis) arches across the entrance to the outside yoga practice area at #6thavenueshala so don’t ask.

Note to self: use reputable plant nurseries for long term investments like fruit trees and vines.

Addendum: this is probably a sultry Saltana (aka Thompson’s seedless). But what did I expect planting a grape vine at the height of a pandemic which shut down the whole world.
