Want to grow organic grapes? Check out this heirloom T.V. Munson cultivar from his North Texas grape breeding program in the late 1800s. Medium-sized grape clusters, very large individual berries with blue-black coloration. It turns color before it’s fully ripe—so be patient and do not harvest early! It’s tart before it’s fully ripe, but then it develops a rich lubrusca flavor. Extremely resistant to diseases.
