Sick looking Grape vine Posted 618 days ago Late last year I planted a Menindee grape vine in my vegie planter/trellis garden. It grew quite well and fast putting out branches up and over the top of trellis. In February, it stopped growing and started to go yellow, so I pruned it back to main trunk and two small branches. Now it looks really sick, yellow leaves and no growth. |

RE: Sick looking Grape vine Posted 617 days ago Ok..I took a leaf to the nursery along with a picture of the vine. They said it has mildew, mites and a virus. The new growth I was getting in January never opened and just looked shriveled. Apparently this is a sign of a virus.(I never knew plants could get virus's!) |
