So jealous of your delightful grapevine, Yviestevie. We've had a muscat for years and it never does nothing- if it does something like yours, it may escape the bin BTW, what did you do with the trampoline?
Dimwit, never had a trampoline, we did have to resurrect the lawn as the people who lived here before had one but that was 8 years ago.
The grapevine is Homburg (the same as Monty Don's). A neighbour gave me a cutting he had rooted and I bunged it in a pot and left it for about two years. He kept asking me how it was doing and eventually I felt guilty and stuck it in the ground. It never gets fed or watered and I just cut it back every year to stop it blocking the path but it just gets better and better. The grapes are lovely.
