Plant description
Better-suited to the British climate than many of the other grapes, this can be grown outside in most of the milder regions throughout the UK. When trained over a pergola, it's large and attractive foliage will provide welcome sumer shade, but it can also be grown in a large pot and kept cut back in smaller spaces. In time it will start to produce a heavy, late summer crop of red, seedless grapes, which can be eaten straight from the vine.

How to care for grape Crimson Seedless:
When planting incorporate plenty of well-rotted organic matter in to the planting hole. It will need some help to clamber up a tree, wall or pergola so you will need to provide some support and tie it in as it grows. Once it has developed a good framework you should shorten all the lateral shoots to within two or three buds from the main stem. It is essential that the majority of the pruning work is tackled in mid winter as the sap tends to 'bleed' at other times of the year, but you can cut back the odd over-long stem to a healthy bud in summer to fit the available space.
Please note:
This plant is deciduous so it will lose all its leaves in autumn, then fresh new foliage appears again each spring.
