I wish I could find those prices here in Louisiana. $6-$8 quart. $20-$25 gallon. I also find they freeze well. A half frozen muscadine is better than any popsicle ever.
Stay away from mail order bare root from some of those sights mentioned...I have bought many 1 gallon muscadines from Bells Seed in Fayetteville,NC and of many varieties with 100%success...Bareroot plants are a crap shoot
THANK YOU!!! Love it and love muscadine grapes I found at Winn Dixie!! They are amaing better than the other grapes. My neighbor is growing them although I haven't tried hers, the leaves are different from another vine I saw with the leaves having more of a pointy edge I thought it was Jamaican capper. Her vine is also dormant whereas the other vine had leaves. I hope to visit, Florida based and start growing them because they are a rare breed and no longer easy to find especially with their health benefits for eating, not interested in the wine but cheers! Great information.
Wow! You deserve an answer, just from the very interesting geographic and legal situation that you have! I'm not the one to answer, but good luck, and I hope that you DO get some advice. Take care!
I imagine there are nurseries in the USA that are able to ship plant material out of the country. I am not familiar with your climate, we have rather mild winters and rarely dip below 10- 20 degrees Fahrenheit. Hope this helps!
We bought a property with a vine about 100 feet long, maybe more. The problem is it has been neglected for years and years guestimate based of size of trees growing within vines.. Overgrowth say can be 15 feet wide and is 8 foot high in many areas over summer.. It is a single line, it is also facing east west but does get alot of sun. We need to shape up but have been concerned with permanent damage trying to shape up, We cut trees - some last year, but have concerns about being sure which is grapevine or other vines and what is trees, it has been that thick, Are we safe to cut way back or what would you advise, When we bought last September we had lots of grapes, this year nothing, we did have a warn up growth started and figs and vines took off them we had another freeze that killed off fig, pear budding, pretty good and I suppose hit the grapes hard too.. Why no grapes this year? .Please advise as to how gentle or harsh we can be
Sorry for the late response but yes you can definitely cut off all but one at the base during dormancy. Then train the one left on a proper trellis for good fruit production.
thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us. I noticed that all vines, which you grow are on the low level. Can I grow it on the arches, like in Italy old style. You can sit or walk in a shade under it. What pros and cos of that style of growing muscadines? Thank you.
Muscadines are very vigorous vines and will gladly grow anyway that you allow. Overhead arches may increase the difficulty of proper annual pruning and inhibit optimum fruit production.
Thanks for all the slides and nitpicky details I haven't heard yet from other grape tutorials. Maybe someday I'll have an awesome muscadine vineyard in my backyard!
Thanks for the videos. I have a question. I only have a 28 x 14’ space. I could get two more feet and make it 28 x 16’. Do you think I have enough to make 3 rows of muscadines?
