We almost got the fence done yesterday but Jacob got called out. (The life of a phone guy) So we will finish the frame today. I do have a "so far" picture, but this was before we cemented, thus the beam supports are still in place.
Our reason behind the new fence, since we had one in place already is mainly for sturdiness. See, we ordered 2 grapes this year and intended to put them around the arbor. Well one of them wouldn't sprout so we thought it was dead, just incase though, I removed it from the ground and repotted it. In it's place we got another grape. Both of the "arbor" grapes are doing splendidly! But now this one in the pot has started to grow! After much thought and debate as to where to put the thing.... we opted to make our fence a bit sturdier. So we've cemented wooden posts instead of rebar. We'll then put the wire fencing back up and string the grape vine through it, should be fun!
I'll post more pictures of project new fence... as I take them...
A good lesson... patience Grasshopper. Dry root (I assume) plants can be irritatingly slow but they mostly do come through. I did the same thing this spring with a dry root rose. Got tired of waiting and went and bought one potted and growing and blooming. Then the orig dry root plant decided to put out. I'm still glad I bought another one because I was able to enjoy the second on for a month before the first blooms on the dry root one.
