These plants are grown in a 3” x 3” x 8” pot to allow for maximum root formation. This product is a great choice for vineyards that need to be planted in the same year the order is placed.

MEDIUM & TALL VINES

Our medium and tall dormant vines are ready for the training wire. These products reduce the need for multiple training passes & extra time tying to the stake. Because these vines are more mature, they possess a hardier root system and the time to fruit production is reduced. Medium and tall vines work well as replants, too, as they do not get shaded out by older adjacent vines. These vines are offered in both a dormant & potted form.

Order Deadline
Medium & Tall Vines - January 1st (current season potted vines or following season dormant delivery)

TREE / VINE PROTECTION

Wonderful Nurseries carries a 3 ¾” x 3 ¾” x 20” or 3 ¾” x 3 ¾” x 24” drop-on, fold top vine/tree shelter. Additional sizes are also available for custom applications.
