Search Results - Vine

Type in a word or phrase to search, you can also type in Article ID's separated by commas:

The term vine may refer to a climbing or trailing plant. The word, derived from Latin vinea, in the original sense referred to the grapevines (Vitis). The modern extended sense is mostly restricted to North American English, which uses "grapevine" to refer to the grape-bearing Vitis species. British English tends to use "climber" to refer to the broader category (such as ivy, Hedera).[citation needed]

Certain plants always grow as vines, while a few grow as vines only part of the time. For instance, poison ivy and bittersweet can grow as low shrubs when support is not available, but will become vines when support is available.

A vine is a stick form based on long stems. This has two purposes. A vine may use rock exposures, other plants, or other supports for growth rather than investing energy in a lot of supportive tissue, enabling the plant to reach sunlight with a minimum investment of energy. This has been a highly-successful growth form for plants such as kudzu and Japanese honeysuckle, both of which are invasive exotics in parts of North America. There are some tropical vines that develop skototropism, and grow away from the light, a type of negative phototropism. Growth away from light allows the vine to reach a tree trunk, which it can then climb to brighter regions. [1]

The vine growth form may also enable plants to colonize large areas quickly, even without climbing high. This is the case with periwinkle and ground ivy. It is also an adaptation to life in areas where small patches of fertile soil are adjacent to exposed areas with more sunlight but little or no soil. A vine can root in the soil but have most of its leaves in the brighter, exposed area, getting the best of both worlds.

1. Hungarian Wine - An Overview
November 06, 2009

There's a thing about the Hungarians - these days they like to keep their wine to themselves (only a fifth of their wines are exported). Interesting when you consider that under communist rule in the early 1980's Hungary was the principle Central European wine exporter, shipping out over 60% of their wine production (mostly to the USSR and Eastern Germany). These days, Hungary has about 315,000 acres under vine, scattered throughout the country everywhere except the far South East. Since the fall of communism in 1989, considerable investment has come in from the west (notably from Germany, ... (read more)

2. Cabernet Sauvignon Wine
November 06, 2009

Cabernet Sauvignon's origin was a little unclear because there are many myths and conjunctures surrounding it. The word "Sauvignon" is believed to have been derived from the French word sauvage, which means wild. It is referred to the grape being a wild Vitis vinifera vine native to France. The grape used to be rumored as having ancient origins.In the past century, Cabernet Sauvignon has become very popular as one of the noblest grapes in the world of wine. Its popularity is built partly on the success in Bordeaux, as well as regions like California and Australia. Planting the grape in any reg... (read more)

November 02, 2009

The Black Eyed Susan Vine is a good plant for beginners in gardening. They're quite easy to grow.

As mentioned in an earlier article, luffas are a tropical gourd belonging to the cucumber family. Luffas are best known as sponges in this country. Once processed, the fibrous interior can be put to many uses. Luffas have been known to be used in stuffing mattresses and pillows. During World War II the US Navy used luffas as filters for their steam engines. They preferred that over all other materials available at the time. Even the US Army used luffas in surgical procedures as well as washing the windows on their jeeps. In other parts of the world the luffa is more known as a food ... (read more)

October 27, 2009

Resveratrol is a natural occurring chemical compound in the skins of vine grapes, Japanese knotweed and a big variety of other plants.

8. Landscaping Northridge
October 22, 2009

It may not be readily apparent in the populated area of northwest Los Angeles, but this foothill region west of the Angeles National Forest has a rich agricultural history that some who have taken an interest in landscaping Northridge have found unique ways to celebrate. The vast cityscape that makes up this area of greater Los Angeles is dotted with reminders of the orchards and farms that used to dominate this valley. Here and there can be found vine-covered outbuildings and other botanical remnants of the orange groves and fields of grapevines that used to color the landscape. Luckily,... (read more)

Every person who owns their own business knows that success is dependant on a consistent supply of customers. For Direct Marketing, MLM and other similar businesses, a consistent supply of quality leads is the lifeblood of their business. Without these leads, the business will wither and die on the vine before it even gets started.

Not just a list of names and email addresses, but the names and addresses must belong to... (read more)

10. Tomato Plant Types - Vine Tomatoes Or Bush Tomatoes
October 12, 2009

Vine tomatoes are also known as indeterminate tomatoes or sometimes cordon tomatoes. These are the varieties that need to be pruned in order to limit the growth to a central stem consisting of around 4 to 6 trusses. The actual number of trusses you decide upon is really dependent on whether you are growing your tomato plants inside a greenhouse or outside and how long a growing season you have. This is because the more trusses you cultivate then the more time you require for the fruit to ripen, having the plants in a greenhouse will extend your season somewhat giving you the option of goi...

15. The Muscat Wine Family - An Overview
September 24, 2009

Muscat is best described as a family of grapes, rather than a single variety. Many strains and mutations of the grape exist, from Muscat Blanc à Petit Grains (the noblest type) to Muscat of Alexandria (the workhorse). The grapes can produce everything from pale, light, sparkling wines to inky, black, occasionally fortified offerings. To our mind, Muscat is an overlooked family, often unfairly derided, and certainly underplanted. Not fair for a vine group thought to be the oldest in civilisation! Muscat is unique in that it is famous for actually smelling of grapes. It is also generally one of ... (read more)

16. California Wine - From the Past To The Future
September 24, 2009

The California wine industry has exploded over the years. Once derided for producing wine of poor quality, the “Judgment of Paris” in 1976 changed everything when wine experts in Europe ranked many California wines equal to or better than classic French wines in a blind tasting. There is currently a huge wine industry in California. The idea of romantic vineyards is one promoted by the industry, but there is little doubt wine is big business. California alone produces roughly 90 percent of the total wine in the United States and is now the fourth biggest wine producing region in the world... (read more)

I am the Vine ; you are the branches. Whoever lives in Me and I in him bears much ( abundant ) fruit. [**] except for Me [cut off from vital union with Me] you can do nothing. God uses growing things - plants ; fruit - as examples when He talks about our relationship with Him, how he expects us to behave, and what he predicts us to do.

18. Grasping Wine Maker Verbiage
September 17, 2009

If a brewer makes beer, what is the name of a person that makes wine? Many people would say brewer, but this is incorrect. It also points to the fact that the titles of many positions in the wine industry are simply unknown. In this article, we look to shed some light on the subject. Let’s start with the first question we’ve posed. Specifically, what is a person that makes wine called? Well, it is really a broad question because there is more than one position in the wine making process. While there are actually many, two are more important than others. Let’s take a closer look.

19. The island of wine
September 15, 2009

Did you know that the famous island Hvar doesn't offer only great nature and beautiful Hvar apartments and very good restaurants and clubs/bars, once Hvar was well known for its good wine. In the 4th Century BC the Ancient Greeks found out that the plain of Stari Grad was very fertile, brought vine to the place and organized the production of wine in an exemplar way. The Romans improved their technology more, and, since then, people have been planting vineyards through the whole island. Winemaking was the basis of Hvar's economy for centuries. In the late 19th Century Hvar owned over 5750 h... (read more)

September 02, 2009

Most people have heard that a glass or 2 of red wine everyday is very healthy for you. Especially if you are an athlete or on a diet, that the wine is good for you is not because of the alcohol, but because of a compound called Resveratrol that is just under the skin of the grapes.

August 13, 2009

Bright yellow tomato blossoms burst forth in the lush, vine-laden garden of my Grandmother. They are the season's stragglers, destined never to fruit and ripen. I am an old-fashioned guy. I always have been. I was born in rural Georgia by my grandmother after my fogeys died. I was raised outdoors in the garden. My Grandma was a keen gardener and so was her mother before her. When it came to the once a year largest tomato contest we came close to winning, but never quite pulled it off. Third Place in 2008 wasn't bad, but we are not about to accept second best.

24. Important Sherry Vines
August 04, 2009

The classic sherry vine is the Palomino, said to take its name from one of Alfonso X's knights, Fernan Yanez Palomino, from whom a well-known Jerez family, still active in the wine trade, claims descent. But there are in fact two Palominos that are related yet different. Historically the Jerez vineyards were planted with the Palomino de Jerez, now known as the Palomino Basto, which is still found growing in the older vineyards. This has now been supplanted by the Palomino Fino, originally found growing in vineyards near Sanlucar known for their Merlot, Muscat, and Mourvedre. It is clearl... (read more)

25. The Resistance and Life of Healthy Vines
August 04, 2009

Stocks vary widely in their resistance to attack and there is a numerical scale due to Ravaz in which 0 corresponds to zero resistance and 20 represents absolute immunity. To create a graduated scale for such an immeasurable quality is perhaps rather whimsical, and is certainly of doubtful value, but those who do use it consider that any American vine with a Ravaz figure between 16 and 20 is suitable for use as a stock. While there is no universally satisfactory stock, there is a wide choice of resistant varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, and Zinfandel; and it is quite easy to... (read more)
