Crimson Glory Vine
Vitis coignetiae
- Crimson Glory Vine is hard to beat for fantastic foliage - and not just in autumn! The broad, fresh green leaves grow vigorously up to heights of 15m and turn to stunning shades of orange, scarlet and crimson later in the year
- Tiny green summer flowers are followed by small black ornamental grapes
- Suitable for any size of garden - simply prune to fit
- RHS Award of Garden Merit winner
- A very strong growing and hardy plant that's ideal for adding life and colour to walls, pergolas and structures
- Low maintenance and easy to get going
- Please Note: Our climbers are pruned back each winter, and some during the summer, so you may find at certain times of year they do not cover the whole 90cm cane. This is intentional to ensure the best growth when you plant out
