Plant history & use
'Boskoop Glory' is a self-pollinating and relatively frost-hardy grape variety developed in the Netherlands and has become popular in northern Europe for its reliability and flavorful harvest. The grapes are blue to dark purple, with juicy flesh and clear sweetness – excellent for eating fresh, pressing into juice, or using in desserts. The variety is resistant to many common diseases and yields well even in greenhouses or against a sunny wall. Traditionally, grapes have been used as a source of energy, for digestion, and as generally strengthening berries.
Cultivation
Thrives in sunny and sheltered locations, preferably against a south-facing wall or in a greenhouse. Plant in well-drained, nutrient-rich soil and prune annually to keep the vine productive and balanced. ’Boskoop Glory’ grows vigorously and needs a trellis or other support. Overwinters in the milder parts of the country, especially with protection around the base.
