Dig holes about 18 inches deep and two feet across, having three to six inches of good, fine soil placed in the bottom of each hole. Have the roots wet and spread them in the hole. Take care not to have them cross each other. Place fine soil carefully among the roots, pressing it firmly, then fill the hole or trench to the lowest bud of the cane.

After the leaves fall, cut the new wood back, leaving only two or three buds; lay the vine on the ground and cover with earth or marsh hay. After this date there are many methods of pruning and training, from which you can adopt whichever suits best.
