Vitis vinifera 'Black Hamburg'
Black Hamburg Grape Vine
Description
Free fruiting grape vine which can be grown outside and is also ideal for conservatories or a greenhouse in cooler parts of the country. In warm areas Vitis vinifera 'Black Hamburg' grows well against hot, sunny walls, where it will produce large bunches of sweet tasting, dark purple fruit after a long hot summer. A very hungry plant, this was traditionally planted over a dead calf, although these days a bucket of good compost should suffice!
