Purple Grape (Vitis vinifera)

Vitis vinifera (purple, blue, or red grape vine) is one of the most popular fruit-bearing climbing plants. It requires a support system (pergola, trellis, or wire) to climb using its tendrils. Purple grape varieties produce their highly flavorful, sweet, and antioxidant-rich clusters in late summer and autumn. It is strictly a warmth and sun-loving plant, ripening its fruit properly only in full sunlight. It requires deep, well-draining soil. While established vines are drought-tolerant, they appreciate regular, deep watering during fruit set and ripening. The most critical aspects of its care are proper early spring pruning, which is essential for a rich harvest, and protection against fungal diseases. It is fully winter hardy. Important warning: Grapes (and raisins) are highly toxic to dogs and cats, causing severe acute kidney failure even in small amounts!

Requires deep, well-draining soil and full sunlight. A support system (trellis/pergola) is necessary. Requires proper pruning in early spring for abundant fruit.
