Thank you for your question. The age and size information for our grapes is as follows: 4” pot: 6-12 months old and 4” tall bare root: 1 year old and 12-18” tall. The roots on a five-year-old vine would be far too developed to dig and sell as bare-root, and would require far too large a pot.
Our grapes will typically take 2-3 years after planting to reach maturity and bear fruit. You'll be harvesting grapes before you know it!
Grapes are best trimmed in late fall or early spring. Otherwise the plant will bleed. Trim back to the third knuckle. That's what my grand dad taught me
We have both seeded and seedless varieties in the concord family.
As long as the Concord variety is recommended for your area, a healthy vine with proper care and regular maintenance can live and produce for as many as 50 years or more!
Hi Jackie - We appreciate you reaching out to us. Unfortunately, the grapes we sell are not that old but they do transplant better when they are young. If you have any further questions please don't hesitate to reach back out to us. Have a great day!
In a sense yes. The Thomcord variety is a hybrid and the seedless is different in that it has no seeds. To answer your question though anytime you hybridize you change some of the original characteristics. If you want just plain old fashioned Concord then order just that one.
Depends on whether you spray them or not. New leaves grown will not be sprayed.
I planted concord, seedless concord, and reliance all in the same row and they are doing just fine here in Michigan. Good luck!
I planted a Concord grape two years ago (only know of one Concord
grape variety.) It took the first year to get established and grew about eight inches but this year it grew about 18 inches up to the arbor I have for it. We live in central western PA and are usually considered in zone 4. The vine looked great this summer and is outperforming the red seedless I planted the same time. Concords are really hardy once they get established and the only thing most people have issues w/is not trimming hard enough once the vine starts to grow. Good luck woth yours.
I grow these grapes with my dad and i really enjoyed them.
Great choice for growing in Oklahoma.
Great for making jelly and preserves.
