Planting guide

Plant in a warm, sunny location with well-drained soil enriched with organic compost. Provide robust support and tie in young shoots as they grow. Water regularly during the first season to aid establishment, then reduce as roots deepen.

Care tips

Feed in early spring to encourage fresh growth and flowering. Prune annually in late winter to control size and remove old wood. Water well during dry spells in summer. Watch for suckers and remove them promptly to maintain focus on main vines. Mulch annually to conserve moisture and suppress weeds.

Winter care

Cut back vigorously in late winter or early spring to manage size and encourage fresh growth. Apply a generous mulch around the base to protect the roots in cold weather.
