Rondo |
We have strong inflorescence on the Rondo and Solaris and a few beginning to form on the Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. None on the Albarino, which looks sickly.
An inflorescence in a flowering plant is a cluster of flowers arranged on a stem composed of a main branch or a system of branches. Inflorescences form within complex, or compound, buds in grapevines. Fruitful buds are initiated in leaf axils (where the leaf stalk, or petiole, meets the growing shoot).
The grape flower does not have conspicuous petals, instead, the petals are fused into a green structure termed the calyptra, commonly referred to as the cap. The cap encloses the reproductive organs and other tissues within the flower.
The grape cluster consists of peduncle, cap stems (also known as pedicels), rachis, and several berries. Depending on the variety, there is a big difference in the size and shape of the cluster, as well as in the shape, size, and colour of the berries. Each berry “hangs” on the pedicel.
