[QUOTE=SueCT;743256]Trying these for the first time. Mine look green, dark purplish at one end like these. Can anyone post a picture of them when fully, perfect eating ripe? Should have paid more attention, I didn't realize they were not red grapes, which is what I was looking for. But who knows, I might love them when I learn to tell they are ripe enough to eat.
Sorry, I just saw the picture from GrowingCoastal. Will the dark purple ones on the lower right turn more reddish brown like the ones on the upper left when they are ripe?[/QUOTE] Yes. Even when they turn colour I test with a light squeeze. They give just a little when ready to pick. |

I'm growing these for the first time this year thanks to pmcgrady. I really like them, they are the tastiest blues or greens whatever they are. No the colors are dull, they don't look anything like the pics in catalogs/online sites but the taste makes up for it. I'll be growing it again.
