Whining about grapes

I inherited an overgrown garden with the purchase of my house. Thick and green, I worked at identifying what I had. Many of the plants have turned out to be sub-tropical, commonly used as houseplants in this climate. They were hooked up to irrigation that ran almost constantly. I deemed this to be a waste of money. If I am going to be watering that much it will be for food I can eat, or establishing native plants that will need less an less water over time. 
Bit by bit I trim, remove and sculpt it to my specifications.
