Description

There are dozens of wild grapes found throughout the continent, all of which have large, serrated, three-lobed leaves. Some of the most common wild grape species found in North America are fox grape (V. labrusca), summer grape (V. aestivalis), and riverbank grape (V. riparia). As their names suggest, wild grapes can be found along streams, ponds, roads, and in open woods clambering up trees. Wild Grapes grow as high-climbing or trailing woody vines with a voracious growing habit and shreddy bark. The height of the vine can reach up to 15 meters because the vine often grows up with the trees and spreads across the canopy.
