Growing in Phoenix: Muscadine grapes are native to the South Eastern and South Central United States. They are larger than conventional grapes with a thick skin and a very juicy sweet interior. The interior is much softer than conventional grapes and melts in the mouth. Muscadines are harvested around July and August. They are excellent for juice given their large size and juiciness. Muscadines can have a wet stem scar meaning that the fruit may teat when harvested. This reduces its shelf life. Therefore dry stem scar varieties are preferred as they store better.
They require a pH of 5.8-6.5. A hardy vine that does well in full sun. No winter protection is needed. Not suited for container growing long term.
See the planting and care guide page for planting and watering instructions.
