Watering

Moderate regular watering, allowing brief slight drying between soakings

Fertilizing

Balanced perennial feed every four weeks from spring through summer

Pruning

Routine pruning is unnecessary; shorten overlong shoots to fit the available space. For last-year flowering growth, prune after flowering; for current-year flowering growth, prune in late winter or spring. This guidance is for established plants.

Propagation

Propagate by hardwood cuttings in late autumn or winter, or by softwood cuttings or semi-ripe cuttings from late spring to midsummer or grafting onto Phylloxera resistant rootstocks

Growing

Grow outdoors in full sun, best against a sheltered warm wall, in well-drained, humus-rich, neutral to alkaline soil, mulch to keep soil moist, for detailed advice, see outdoor grape cultivation. Grow indoors in a greenhouse or conservatory to produce a good crop in cold areas, for detailed advice see indoor grape cultivation
