Planting: Can be planted year-round in a sunny spot. Choose a location with fertile, well-drained soil. If planting multiple vines, space them 1.2-1.5m apart.
Watering: Water regularly throughout the first growing season to help the vine establish. Container-grown vines and those at the base of a wall require more frequent watering.
Feeding: For ground-grown vines, apply a high-potassium fertiliser each spring. For container-grown plants, use a regular liquid feed throughout the growing season.
Pruning: Prune your grape vine during the winter months while it is dormant to encourage a healthy crop the following year.
