Short answer, no, long answer, maybe. If you plant your cutting in the ground or in a container it will put out roots before it will start growing, so if you root it in a cup of water you will be able to see the progress of the roots, which can make it seem to be growing faster than if it was in the ground. But what i would recommend is that you buy some rooting powder (you can get it at most hardware stores or garden stores) and dip your cutting in that, then plant it where you want it. It will seem slow at first, but once it has a good root system it will grow like normal. It will take about three years before you get a decent cluster of grapes.

Where can I purchase grapevine?

That depends where you are located. In the US, Michael's carries them. Online stores such as Craft Outlet and Consumers Crafts also carry them.

Do seeds need to be dried before planting or can you take fresh undried seeds and plant them? Or, will germination be at a lower success rate?

Germination will be about the same. It is better to dry them though. Germination with wet seeds works better.

Our neighbor's very old elm tree has no buds yet (end of May) and leaves yellowed very early last year.

Sometimes weather conditions mean that too much cold and air pollution have restricted the plant's ability to recreate its buds for flowers. But it will produce buds later. If you...
