'Niagara' is an excellent white variety producing generous clusters of flavorful fruit, plus they are known for their pleasant aroma. The Niagara Grape has a very sweet taste that makes it ideal for table use, jams/jellies, juice, wines, and champagnes. Niagara ripens mid season and it ranks just below Concord in cold hardiness and ripens somewhat earlier. Plants are vigorous, hardy, and productive. Grapes are not particular about soil preference and do especially well in clays and loams that have been improved with organic matter. Not only do the plants produce fruit, grapevines are also ornamental. Train vines over an arbor or pergola to create a striking garden accent and you'll soon be harvesting your own fresh grapes.
The vines are allowed to run as they will the first year and the posting or staking is done the second or third year when you will prune heavily, leaving only 2 or 3 buds on the strongest stem. As it grows you’ll keep only the most vigorous sprout to form the main stem. Shallow cultivation and mulching are beneficial.
Planting instructions: May be planted in any well-drained soil. Dig a hole large enough to encompass the roots without bending or circling. Set the plant in place so the crown (part of the plant where the roots meet the stem) is about 1-2" below the soil surface. Cover with soil to the original soil surface and water thoroughly. Fertilize when planting.
