How to Grow and Care for Bare Root Vines

Bare root vines arrive dormant, making them easy to plant and transport during cooler months. To grow them successfully, soak the roots in water for 3–6 hours before planting to rehydrate them. Choose a location with the right light exposure—most flowering or fruiting vines prefer full sun—and install a trellis, arbor, or support structure before planting.

Dig a hole wide enough to spread out the roots and deep enough so the crown (where the roots meet the stem) sits just at or slightly above ground level. Backfill with loose, well-draining soil, firm it gently, and water thoroughly. Keep the soil evenly moist during the first growing season to help establish strong roots.

Mulch around the base to retain moisture and prevent weeds, being careful not to cover the crown. As the vine grows, guide new shoots onto the support structure. Prune lightly after the first season to shape and remove any dead growth. With proper care, bare root vines will quickly take off and provide beautiful vertical interest in your landscape.
