- In early autumn, ‘Exalta’ produces sizable bunches of chartreuse grapes with excellent sweetness, perfect for popping straight in your mouth or for using in recipes in the kitchen
- It also boasts great ornamental value, too, with highly attractive, serrated and lobed green leaves that usually take on deep orange and yellow hues before falling
- An ideal choice for a sunny, south-facing garden, this grape vine can easily be grown against a wall or fence, or trained up an arbour or pergola
- Although naturally hardy, this grape vine will appreciate a more sheltered planting location where possible
- Few plants are as evocative as grape vines, so if you’re looking to add character and Mediterranean charm to your garden, then opting for a grape vine like ‘Exalta’ is a great way to go
