Grape Venus 2Gal

Key Characteristics

• Fruit: Large, blue-to-black seedless berries that grow in medium-to-large, full clusters.
• Flavor Profile: Sweet and rich with a distinct blend of American (Vitis labrusca) and muscat notes, plus a slipskin texture (meaning the skin peels away easily from the pulp). 
• Uses: Best for fresh eating, juices, jellies, and light homemade wines.
• Harvest Time: Early in the season, typically ripening from August to early September. 

Growing & Care

• Hardiness Zones: Thrives in USDA Hardiness Zones 4–9 (best adapted to Zones 5–8). 
• Sunlight & Soil: Requires full sun (6–8 hours daily) and well-draining soil with a pH of 6.0–7.0. 
• Pollination: Self-fertile (does not need a second plant nearby to produce fruit). 
• Size: Vigorous vine growing 10 to 15+ feet long; ideal for training along a trellis, fence, or arbor. 
• Maintenance: Benefits from heavy annual pruning (cutting back about 90% of the previous year's growth during winter dormancy).
