Vitis is primarily planted as an ornamental climber, but some varieties will produce fruits in the right conditions. The deeply lobed leaves are mid-green during spring and summer, later turning to orange-red in autumn. The leaves are accompanied by tiny green flowers that later turn to deep purple coloured grapes.
Make sure you give Vitis a sunny but sheltered position in the garden to get the best out of them.
