About Mars
Mars is a blue seedless grape with sweet, juicy slip-skin berries and flavor somewhat reminiscent of Concord. It is especially useful in humid climates because the vine has good resistance to common grape diseases, including powdery mildew and black rot.
Growing Mars Grape
Mars is a practical choice for Eastern gardens, but it still needs full sun, annual pruning, and a trellis to fruit well. Keep clusters exposed to light and airflow, and harvest when berries are fully blue and sweet, not just colored.
