Photos of plants are a representation of the plant (sometimes at full size) and not of the actual plant on offer.

We show you an image,so you can see what the variant of plant looks like.

It is fairly obvious that if we show you a picture of a large plant, but you select a small one, they will not be the same size.

Your selection of size will determine what size plant you receive based on the pot or planter size you selected. After making your selection using the drop down boxes, please visit the Additional Information Tab to see an estimate plant size based on the packaging dimensions.

Using planter size as size selector is standard practice in the Nursery Industry, as a retail-ready plant is a plant grown to size in the container it populates.

Our plants are always sourced from professional and reputable growers and our plants are of the best quality possible

Description

The Table Grape Catawba Black is a vigorous, fast-growing vine known for its sweet-sour flavor and striking dark purple skin. It’s a hybrid of Vitis labrusca (Fox Grape) and Sémillon, with a rich history in American viticulture—once the most widely planted grape in the U.S. during the 1800s.

Here’s a care snapshot tailored for your nursery or client advice:

Sunlight: Full sun is essential for optimal fruiting.
Soil: Prefers well-drained, slightly acidic soil rich in organic matter.
Watering: Regular watering during establishment; reduce once mature.
Pruning: Prune in late winter to encourage airflow and fruit production.
Harvest: Ripens late summer to early autumn; only pick when fully ripe for best flavor.
Uses: Excellent as a table grape, for jams, or even home winemaking due to its high acidity and vibrant flavor.
It’s a great addition to edible landscapes and performs well in many South African climates.
