Muscadine Fruits


This month in the arboretum, look for ripe muscadine grapes. You can read about this collection of vines in a previous blog post, here.
The darkest grapes should be easy to pull from the vine.
These are perfectly ripe.
These are large grapes with a strong, Welch's grape flavor, accompanied by a peppery after taste. The skin is thick and you will find one to four seeds inside.
