Grape vines are sold in 1 gallon pots already leafed in and ready to plant.
Flamme Seedless Grapes grow best in zones 6-10 on this map. Two to three years are normally required to establish a grape planting. Vines planted for training on a trellis are normally placed 8 feet apart, while those planted for training on an arbor can be placed 4 feet apart. Before growth begins the second year, a support for the vines, either a trellis or an arbor, must be provided. Care of vines the second year is similar to that of the first year. However, during the second season, a system for training the vines should be selected.
Grapes perform best where the soil pH is between 5.0 and 6.0. Good sanitation practices, managing vine canopies for good air movement and pest scouting, are all part of growing grapes successfully. Leave grapes on the vines until fully ripe for best flavor and sweetness!
