Re: flat vines
As I mentioned the other day,I grew a flat vine last year.The flat vine
itself did not set fruit. The secondary , once started, was quite another
story.If I had not spent so much time enjoying the oddity(for me) I would
have terminated the primary (with all those great leaves) after 10 ft. and
set my hopes on that secondary.
