Grape plant called `Southern Home`

Abstract

A new and distinct variety of grape with a unique leaf resembling the maple. This cultivar is adapted as an ornamental, dooryard grape that could be grown on arbors around patios and as borders on fences. The new grape is distinguished by vigorous growth and superior disease resistance, requiring few fungicide applications, making it environmentally compatible for use around the home. The grape is also distinguished by its foliar characteristics which make it visibly different than other commercial cultivars of grape.

I claim: 
     
       1. A new and distinct cultivar of grape plant called `Southern Home`, substantially as herein illustrated and described, characterized by the unusual shape of the leaf, particularly by deep cut sinuses of the leaves resembling a maple leaf, and by the vigorous growth, disease resistance, and by the fruit.
