Re: grapes

We used to grow grapes outside which used to do really well when we lived in East Anglia.

Plant them on a South facing wall preferably Rhian and they will soon start to romp away. In fact there are more and more people starting up Vineyards in UK and doing really well.

Re: grapes

Have two vines on my allotment, very easy to grow.

The pruning is a pain in the neck.
