Specimen White Wine Grape Vine
Was £29.95, now £19.95A fantastic grape vine that is great for growing against a south- or south-west facing wall, or in a greenhouse. As it is already 1.5-2m tall it will give instant impact to your garden or patio, and will produce bunches of grapes that are perfect for making white wine. Though usually seen growing in the Mediterranean, grape vines can be grown successfully in most parts of the UK. All they need is a sheltered sunny spot against a warm wall and can either be grown in large pots or planted in well-drained soil.Grape vines have been grown in Britain as far back as the Roman times. They are tough plants that don't take up much space and can be planted at the back of borders, along fences or climbing up pergolas. They prefer to be planted in a south-facing spot, but south-east or south-west, or a sheltered courtyard will do. Grapes need plenty of water too to make them swell, and the best thing is little and often. Once you've harvested them, why not make your own wine and impress friends and relatives with your very own vintage.Position: full sunSoil: well-drained, preferably neutral to alkaline soilRate of growth: fast-growingFlowering period: June to JulyFlower colour: tiny green flowersOther features: grapes used for making white wineHardiness: fully hardyGarden care: When planting incorporate plenty of well-rotted organic matter in to the planting hole.
