Grape Schuyler

Schuyler Grape

The Schuyler grape variety is an eating grape that produces fruit that ripen in early autumn. It features clusters of medium sized, blue-black berries with a slight currant flavour. This deciduous vine carries large, mid-green leaves which develop yellow tones in autumn before falling. It requires a trellis or fence for support and if left untrimmed, it will grow to about 5 m tall. It grows best when planted in full sun on a well-drained, sheltered site and it is tolerant of frost and cold environments. The Schuyler grape is commonly used for fruit production, grown to attract birds, or trained on a support structure as an attractive feature.
