I have just received confirmation that the vines have been dispatched, so all being well they should arrive in the next day or two and I can get them in the ground before Christmas. I just hope there are no delays in the post being so close to Christmas, as I don’t think they would cope too well with being stuck in a sorting office for a week!
I was expecting them to arrive sometime in November, but with a later than average arrival of the first hard frost and subsequent cold weather it has taken the vines longer to go into dormancy, which is the best time to transplant them.
