Vitis Frontenac Blue Grape

Vitis Frontenac Blue Grape is a true star in the garden! This French-American hybrid grapevine is not just a treat for the eyes but also a producer of delicious fruits. Tiny yellowish-green flowers blossom in mid to late spring, leading to clusters of bluish-black grapes that are ready to be harvested from late summer to late fall.

These grapes aren't just your average bunch—they're the secret ingredient for crafting dry red wine, rose, and port. Imagine the possibilities! With a perfect balance of high sugar and high acidity, the Frontenac wines boast a bold cherry flavor with delightful hints of blackberry, blackcurrant, and plum—a true dessert wine lover's dream.

The Vitis Frontenac Blue Grape is a hardy companion in your garden. In its first year, let it run wild, and as it matures in the second or third year, give it some love with a sturdy post or stake after a good pruning. Keep only the strongest stems, and watch it thrive. Regular spraying and pruning will ensure a bountiful harvest. Whether on a trellis, courtyard wall, arbor, pergola, or fence, this grapevine adds a touch of charm to any garden setting.

Sunny spots with well-draining soil are its favorite, but it's adaptable to various soil types. Clays, loams—you name it! Just make sure they have good drainage. And don't forget a sheltered spot away from winter winds. Shallow cultivation and mulch are the grapevine's best friends. Bring home the Vitis Frontenac Blue Grape and watch your garden transform into a fruitful haven.

The vine is self-fertile and will bear fruit without any pollen from other varieties.

Grapes ship as 1-year-old plants.
