The cultivation of the grape began 6,000–8,000 years ago in the Near East where the species was domesticated. Viticulture spread to other parts of the world following trade routes; grapes have since been grown successfully in temperate climates and even in some tropical regions.

There are over 1000 grape varieties worldwide, and over 100 are used for wine. The development of breeding programs has led to the creation of new grape varieties that have increased tolerance to adverse conditions such as drought and frost.

Grape Vines are very slow to bear fruit, and it can take up to 3 years for them to produce. The first year of growth is the most important for grapevines, as it is during this time that they form their root system.

The best time of year to plant a grapevine is in late fall or winter, but if you cannot wait until then, then you can plant in spring as well. If you want to harvest grapes from your own backyard, then you will need to plant at least two grape vines together so that they will provide each other with needed shade and support.
