Charlottechicken Posted June 3, 2007 Share Posted June 3, 2007 Well, I won't have enough to make a bottle of wine, but my new grape vines are doing nicely This is the red one, and this is the white one They were bought six weeks ago and had some forced tiny white shoots on them, but they were alive, so I rescued them Can't wait for the harvest, in 2009 or 2010 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaime Posted June 3, 2007 Share Posted June 3, 2007 You will get a harvest next year and if you get any flowers in the next few weeks you could even get some very small grapes by the end of the summer. Ones I planted last year have loads of flowers on this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What type have you got, and have you found them easy to train and look after? I kept the instructions and will follow them to the letter, never had a vine before. Mine are Cabernet Sauvignon and Sauvignon Blanc, both £2.49 from Woollies, probably not the best ones for eating? They were poorly but alive when I got them. Dont forget to invite us to the all important taste testing Will do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 We had to replace ours as we left our nicely maturing vines at the house - our new ones are flowering now as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
