Vitis vinifera 'Vroege van der Laan' – 2 grapevines for the garden and balcony

The Vitis vinifera 'Vroege van der Laan' is a robust and hardy grapevine known for its early ripening and excellent sweetness. This variety is ideally suited for Dutch gardens, greenhouses, and spacious balconies, where it produces a bountiful harvest of flavorful grapes under optimal conditions. Whether you want to make your own juice, jam, or wine, or simply enjoy fresh grapes, this plant offers the perfect combination of productivity and ornamental value.

Pot size and format
You'll receive two plants, each in a sturdy pot measuring 15 cm in diameter and approximately 50 cm tall. This is an ideal size for good root development, ensuring your plant grows quickly and vigorously after planting.

Care and location
The 'Vroege van der Laan' grows best in a sunny spot. Full sun produces the sweetest, juiciest grapes. Provide a location with at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day. The plant requires well-drained, nutrient-rich soil. We recommend adding compost or organic fertilizer to the potting mix to maintain nutrient levels. This not only promotes growth but also fruit quality.

Water and fertilization
Regular watering is essential, especially during warm, dry periods. However, avoid allowing the roots to sit in wet soil for extended periods, as this can cause root rot. During the growing season, it's advisable to feed the plant with a liquid plant food specifically formulated for fruit-bearing plants once a month to maintain strength and produce optimal fruit.

Support and pruning
Grapevines are climbers and need support to guide their tendrils. Use a trellis, pergola, or wire structure to allow the tendrils to wind along. This also makes harvesting easier and promotes better air circulation around the plant, which reduces disease.
Annual pruning is crucial for a good yield and a healthy plant. Prune in winter, when the plant is dormant, to remove old and weak branches and make room for new growth.
