Vitis vinifera

Vitis vinifera: Characteristics and Care

The Vitis vinifera, popularly known as grapevine, is a woody, deciduous climbing plant native to the Mediterranean basin and Western Asia, distinguished by its deep green palmate leaves and clusters of grapes, a fruit of great ornamental and productive value.

Its climbing ability makes it a popular choice for pergolas, trellises, and orchards, providing summer shade and a personal harvest.

It tolerates moderate drought well once established and adapts to poor and stony soils, provided it has good drainage.

At Ornacom, we directly cultivate each specimen, ensuring a balanced habit and abundant fruiting from the first years of planting.
