Not a lot to see, but this is our first planting of Melon de
Bourgogne. The four rows from the center to the right of the
photo are our original 2004 planting, you can see some foliage.
At this stage (2nd year) of the grape plant, it is trimmed back
severely, and trained to a single stem which will be the future
trunk, thus it looks like but a tiny little plant although it's
really got a large root system.
At the top center of the photo you can see the light poles on
highway SR-305 -- our vineyard is visible at the
Lovgreen Road intersection.
