Care Guide
Good pest and disease resistance
Grape vines can suffer from powdery mildew in hot, dry weather. Birds and wasps could be problematic if planted outdoors.MORE
Water regularly in summer
Grape vines are fairly drought tolerant, but can suffer from powdery mildew if too dry at the roots. Water thoroughly in dry spring and summer weather to avoid this.
Full sun
Plant where the vine will receive around 6-8 hours of sunlight daily.
Any fertile, well-draining soil
Grape vines can tolerate a range of soil types, provided they are free draining.
Feed in spring
Apply a general purpose liquid fertiliser in spring in order to promote healthy growth. ?v=1613300718
