Sauvignon Blanc is a classic wine grape variety of Vitis vinifera, appreciated for its vigorous vine growth and ornamental leaf structure. These seeds grow into a climbing deciduous vine that performs well on trellises, arbors, fences, or pergolas, making it suitable for edible landscapes, vineyard-inspired gardens, and decorative outdoor settings.
In cooler climates, vines may be grown against a warm wall or in a protected microclimate. Plants thrive in full sun, well-drained soil, and benefit from regular pruning to maintain shape and encourage productive vine development.
Seeds are Non-GMO and suitable for gardeners interested in long-term perennial vine cultivation.
