Tom, The one that I have is Black Hamburg. It is supposed to be an easy all-round vine ( greenhouse or outside ). If this one is easy I would hate to have a hard one. On the whole if I had the time to look after it as I should, it is a good choice. I can't tell you what they taste like as I don't eat grapes - my dad usually takes them all to eat and make "jam". It will take a few years to bear decent fruit. There are a few golden rules in vine keeping otherwise disaster. Read up first and see if you wish to go ahead. I could take some cuttings at the end of the season, but it would be a few years before any grapes. I don't know what time of year is best to plant - usually most pot grown plants can be planted anytime - it is bare rooted things that can be fussy. If you do get a vine I would be more than happy to give you a few pointers on cultivation etc.
