More coastal, New Englandish in longitude. I read in a wine atlas that the soil there is generally chalky like Chablis (ancient oyster beds). We saw difficulties when our solutions were too acid, but I expect the first increase generation to be a little better adjusted to the tray.

The plant is short with very narrow leaflets and a bright fruity fragrance. It tends toward citrus/sweet/sour. Here's a pollinated top:




There were some plants that were sexed and labeled male then switched hard to female and then grew balls. Point being that there are naturally occurring intersex plants in wild populations.

We managed to find one very nice male, one that grew strong and healthy and showed no signs of female expression.

We've honored that male and used it in a few crosses with our female standards. We'll harvest seed from this project in mid-December. It'll be fun to see the outcomes.
