Description

The White Hanepoot Table Grape—also known as Muscat d’Alexandrie—is a heritage cultivar cherished in South Africa for its large, seeded berries, honey-sweet flavor, and golden-green skin that turns yellow when ripe. It’s a vigorous climber, ideal for pergolas or trellises, and offers a nostalgic taste of traditional winemaking and fresh eating.

Here’s a care guide tailored for your nursery or client base:

Sunlight: Thrives in full sun—essential for sugar development and flavor.
Soil: Prefers well-drained, sandy loam with slightly acidic pH.
Watering: Keep moist during growth; reduce during ripening to prevent splitting.
Pruning: Prune in late winter or after harvest to encourage fruiting on 1–2-year-old wood.
Support: Needs a strong trellis or pergola—can reach 3m in height and spread.
Harvest: Typically ripens from February to March in South Africa.
Pests/Disease: Susceptible to powdery mildew—apply lime sulphur during dormancy and ensure good airflow.
