Family

Foliage Rules

Leaves are large, heart-shaped or palmate, and alternate; look for the characteristic coarse texture typical of Vitis labrusca foliage.

Clusters of rounded, pale greenish-yellow grapes hanging from woody stems.

Fruit Flower Rules

Fruit clusters should only be depicted on mature, established vines; flowers are small, greenish-yellow, and bloom in late spring.

Growth Habit Rules

Must show climbing behavior and branch structure; avoid exaggerating the size of a young starter plant in images.

Mature Plant Look

A vigorous vine covering a structure with dense, lush green foliage and visible clusters of ripening grapes.

Mature Stage Morphology

Mature vines exhibit thick, woody main stems with expansive, serrated foliage and characteristic branching tendrils used for climbing.

Morphology Rules

Represent the plant as a climbing vine, never as a small upright shrub or tree-like form.

Plant Faqs

How much space does a Blanc du Bois grape need? These vigorous vines should be spaced 8 to 10 feet apart on a sturdy trellis. Do I need another vine for pollination? No, this is a self-fertile variety that will produce fruit on its own. When should I prune my grapevine? Pruning is best performed in late winter while the plant is dormant.

Root Look

Healthy, white to tan fibrous root system contained in a small plug.

Soil Look

Dark, porous, high-quality potting mix.

Starter Stage

A young, rooted starter plant with a soft green stem and expanding primary leaves, typically arriving in a small propagation plug.

Starter Stage Morphology
