The medium-sized, dark-black oval Delicious Muscadine Grape (Vitis rotundafolia 'Delicious') ripens early. This cultivar, developed by the University of Florida, matures two weeks earlier than other varieties and produces abundant, delectable, edible-skinned fruit! Great for wine-making, juicing, or enjoying fresh!

In the spring, these vines burst to life, showcasing lush green foliage and white flowers that attract pollinators eager for a taste of nectar. In a short amount of time, this early-season grape will be ripe for the picking, giving you and your loved ones an abundance of options - from fresh snacks to juice and even wine if you're feeling fancy.

Planting multiple Muscadine plants together is not only a beautiful way to create a lush, vibrant garden, but also a natural way to improve pollination. Watch as these self-fertile plants work together to produce a bountiful, delicious harvest year after year. Hardy in USDA growing zones 7 to 9, this deciduous variety will grow to a mature height of 10-15 feet with a 6-8 foot width, making it a perfect addition to any gardeners of all ages.

Selections:

  • 'Delicious' is a self-fertile variety with sweet, medium-large bronze fruits. Even ripening and a lack of wetness in the scar are additional features. Delicious is a crop that could benefit from being harvested mechanically.
  • 'Southern Home' berries are about the size of a golf ball, and they taste different from other muscadine grapes. The yield is average to high, and the fruit ripens from August to November. Another great Muscadine that you can can or eat fresh is this one.
  • 'Carlos' have bunches of grapes are perfectly round and a metallic bronze color. They are surrounded by glossy, deep green leaves that look stunning. Excellent for Making Delicious Wine or Juice. There is no better Muscadine grape type for making wine than the Carlos. 90 percent of all the muscadine grapes grown in North Carolina are heavy and of high grade.
  • 'Alachua' is a fast-growing vine that bears fruit and can be grown in USDA Plant Hardiness Zones 7A through 10B. "Alachua" is a strong, self-fertile muscadine variety! Diseases don't bother it much, and it tastes strongly of muscadines. The leaves are different shades of light green, medium green, and dark green. It doesn't mind drought, diseases, mildew, or heat, and it draws wildlife.
  • 'Welder' is a processing cultivar from Florida that can reproduce itself. Vines are strong and produce a lot of fruit. A great range of things. Another great Muscadine that you can can or eat fresh is this one. Welder is thought to be one of the sweetest types grown, which makes them great for eating fresh, making juice, and even making wine! When fully grown, these tasty amber fruits will grow to be 8 to 12 feet tall. They can survive in zones 7 and will ripen in late August or early September, though they may ripen later in northern areas.
