    HVH: "'Wild Grape' is a new purple variety that makes us a little giddy with the joy a fine new flower inspires. 'Wild Grape' buds up well on an excellent, upright well branched bush that opens lots of 6-7" flowers in wild purple colors as one would expect from its classic parents 'Born To Be Wild' and 'Allure.' Released from HVH in 2010."
