Muscadine Grape 20 Seeds Vitis rotundifolia

Vitis rotundifolia, commonly known as the muscadine grape, is a vigorous, deciduous vine native to the southeastern United States, prized for its resilience and flavorful fruit. Unlike other grape species, muscadine thrives in hot, humid climates and is highly tolerant of pests and diseases. Its leathery, round leaves are glossy green with finely toothed margins, and it produces small, greenish flowers in spring, followed by thick-skinned, dark purple to bronze grapes in late summer to fall. These grapes are rich in antioxidants and are often used in wines, jellies, and fresh consumption. Vitis rotundifolia climbs by tendrils and can grow vigorously along trellises or fences, making it both a productive and ornamental choice for edible landscapes. It prefers well-drained soils and full sun, and benefits from annual pruning to maintain shape and fruit production.
