Cold-hardy, highly decorative, award-winning Vitis ‘Brant’ is a large, vigorous deciduous climbing shrub or vine producing sweet, aromatic black grapes. They can be eaten fresh from the vine or used for making a decent wine. Providing a dense leafy cover, ‘Brant’ features deeply lobed, dark green leaves which turn vivid shades of scarlet, russet, gold, and pink in fall. Insignificant greenish-white flowers appear in early summer, followed by clusters of small, edible black grapes in late summer or early fall. ‘Brant’ is an excellent combination of fantastic foliage that can clothe a structure beautifully and excellent fruit. Give it plenty of sun, a sheltered spot, and sturdy support, and it will reward you with its best fruits.

  • Winner of the prestigious Award of Garden Merit of the Royal Horticultural Society
  • Produces its fruit late in the season but with good sugar levels.
  • Easy to grow, this Grape Vine can grow up to 20-30 ft. tall (6-9 m) and 6-10 ft. wide (1.8-3 m).
  • Thrives in full sun in deep, loamy, humus-richmedium moisture, well-drained soils. Tolerates a wide range of soil conditions, but good drainage is essential. Best sited in a location sheltered from winter winds (preferably a sunny south-facing slope) and well removed from frost pockets. Needs good air circulation.
  • Grape vines require sturdy support for their twining stems, such as pergolas, walls, or fences. Perfect in cottage gardens or Mediterranean gardens.
  • Propagate by hardwood cuttings or grafting onto Phylloxera resistant rootstocks
  • May be affected by powdery mildew and botrytis
