Explanation:

The ‘grapevine’ is an informal means of circulating information or gossip. It is direct, spontaneous and flexible. It is personal, unofficial, and mostly verbal.

The term ‘Grapevine Communication’ originated during the American Civil War (1861- 1865). During the period the communication of intelligence information through telegraph was not effective and reliable because the telegraph system was unorganised. Telegraph lines were strung in a haphazard way through the trees like a real grapevine. Because of this the messages sent through the system were often confusing and incorrect.
