  • About this plant

    Vitis vinifera 'Brant' is a hardy, ornamental grapevine prized for its attractive foliage, colourful autumn display, and sweet, edible black grapes. This deciduous climber produces small, greenish flowers in summer, followed by clusters of dark purple-black fruit that are suitable for fresh eating and juicing. Its large, deeply lobed leaves flush with crimson and gold in autumn, making it a dual-purpose plant — productive and highly decorative. Ideal for fences, pergolas, or trellises in sunny gardens.

Planting guide

Plant in a sunny, sheltered spot with support for climbing. Use fertile, free-draining soil. Water well in dry spells during the first year. Prune annually to manage growth and improve fruiting.

Care tips

Prune hard in winter to maintain structure and encourage fruiting. Thin developing grape clusters for better quality. Feed in spring with balanced fertiliser.

Winter care

Prune during dormancy in late winter to shape and encourage fruiting. Young vines may benefit from root mulch in very cold areas.
