I wish... ;-)
My West fence was deliberately planted with Wild Muscadine grapevines to
provide a "green" privacy fence. They vines are now 3 years old and have
outgrown my wildest expectations! lol The vines in the driveway are
producing much better than last year.
I'm serious about having to prune them. I don't want them overgrowing
the Canna lillies!
I'm considering some air layering for propagation on some of the
sections I plan to prune. Methinks these vines would take over my entire
yard if I let them!!!
Want some? ;-D
They are almost as bad as Kudzu!

I don't know why you would propagate it. I highly doubt any of the garden
centers would buy it. You can call around first.
Well, I bought my original vines from a nursery that specializes in
xeriscaping originally, and paid $3.00 each for well rooted plants, so
there must be a market for them. :-)
I imagine that the same people that pay for Lantana would pay for wild
grape? G
I dug up my Lantana's out in the boonies and just transplanted them.
They are doing fine.
