FAQs
Can these grapes be grown in pots permanently?
Yes, but you will need to move them into significantly larger containers (at least 15-20 liters) as they mature to support their root systems.
When is the best time to prune these vines?
Pruning should be done in late winter (January or February) while the plant is dormant and before new sap begins to flow.
How long until I get my first grapes?
Most vines will start producing small amounts of fruit in their second or third year, with yields increasing as the vine matures.
Do I need to cover the vines in winter?
These varieties are hardy enough for UK winters and do not typically require covering once established.
Are the grapes seedless?
The assortment includes varied types; please check the specific labels included with your plants, as characteristics like seed content can vary by variety.
Do I need to plant all three together?
No, they can be planted in different parts of your garden as long as each location meets the sunlight and soil requirements.
Troubleshooting
Leaves turning yellow early in the season
This is often a sign of poor drainage or overwatering. Ensure the soil is well-draining and reduce watering frequency if the soil remains waterlogged.
Vine is growing slowly
Ensure the plant is receiving at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily and consider applying a balanced fertilizer in early spring.
Plant looks limp after transplanting
Newly transplanted vines need time to establish roots. Keep the soil consistently moist but not saturated and protect from high winds for the first few weeks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
When you receive your plants in their 9 cm pots, it is best to transplant them into well-drained, fertile soil. If your soil is heavy clay, mix in organic matter to improve drainage. Ensure the vines are planted at the same depth they were in their nursery pots. As the vines grow, use soft ties to secure the main stems to a support structure. Water regularly during the first growing season, especially in dry spells. In late winter while the plant is dormant, prune the side shoots back to two or three buds to encourage fruit development for the upcoming season.
