Vitis rupestris Scheele
WAIF Stem: climbing or not, < 1 m, glabrous; nodal partitions generally 1--2 mm thick; tendrils ephemeral if not climbing. Leaf: reniform, +- folded at midrib, generally serrate, glabrous, lobes 0 or 3, shallow; stipules generally > 3.5 mm. Flower: unisexual. Fruit: generally 0. Chromosomes: 2n=38. Ecology: Uncommon. Abandoned vineyards, roadsides; Elevation: < 1000 m. Bioregional Distribution: s NCoRO, s NCoRI, GV, CW; Distribution Outside California: Native to central United States, most common in southern Missouri. Flowering Time: Apr--May Note: Plants likely rootstock cultivar 'St. George' remaining from abandoned vineyards. Jepson eFlora Author: Eric B. Wada & M.

MAP LEGEND View all CCH records All markers link to CCH specimen records. The original determination is shown in the popup window.
Blue markers indicate specimens that map to one of the expected Jepson geographic subdivisions (see left map). Purple markers indicate specimens collected from a garden, greenhouse, or other non-wild location.
Yellow markers indicate records that may provide evidence for eFlora range revision or may have georeferencing or identification issues.
