Just in case you prefer white grapes.
These are so cute! They can be forced inside for winter blooms, or grown outside. They are tough little critters, and will naturalize anywhere. They have the odd habit of sprouting leaves in the fall. Don't worry about it; they know what they're doing! 5+ cm round bulbs (largest size available)
