'Vitis vinifera Red Rudy' is a red grape plant. It is a climbing plant that can grow several metres high. You can lead it into all sorts of shapes and keep it very compact by pruning it well. You can easily lead the grape along a pergola or on a wall with tension wires. The grape first produces inconspicuous clusters of flowers in May-June, after which the grape bunches will form. The fruits are red-purple, with a sweet aromatic taste. You can eat them directly or use them to make jam, juice or wine. The grape plant needs plenty of sun to ripen and loves heat so a south-facing location is ideal.
