SKU #00141
Description | Vigorous-growing vine produces tasty, egg-size fruit that mature in late autumn. Needs little winter chill and is ideal for milder climates. Flowers open creamy white and fade to buff in late spring. Despite it's name, Vincent is female, requiring a male-flowered vine to produce fruit; we recommend 'Tomuri'. Deciduous. |
