Discover the grape variety: Himrod

An interspecific cross between ontario (winchell x diamond) and sultana - it is therefore not a pure Vitis vinifera as some people write - created in 1928 by A.B. Stout at the New York State Agricultural Experimental Station (United States). Its multiplication started only in 1952, it is certainly known in the United States but also in Canada, in India, in many European wine-producing countries, ... little multiplied and thus little known in France except by the amateur gardeners. The Interlaken which looks a bit like the Himrod, the Lakemont and the Romulus have the same parents.
